British swim school of Cleveland has changed the game for our family. We have had swim lessons elsewhere and it was a very traumatic experience for my son. The teacher was not compassionate or kind and pushed him too hard. He never enjoyed it which led us to eventually withdrawing. We were searching for a place like this in town and are so happy to work with Mr. Raymond. Mr. Raymond is very patient and empowers my son by respecting his wishes when he’s had too much of one exercise. He is able to pivot and build his confidence in ways that only an experienced teacher can. He is very patient and takes his time to show and explain new concepts so he understands before asking my son to attempt it. This is an ideal learning environment for my son and I would recommend British swim school to anyone.

My daughter has been in the program for a month. This program makes sure she is safe and comfortable in the water starting from the basics. She has been in many swimming programs and this one is unique. The class size is small so that is a great benefit. Right now she is one-on-one. There is a parent portal that makes it easy to communicate and pay, change schedule for absence. Since I'm in Georgia this is a closer location vs other Chattanooga areas. They care so much about safety that they've cancelled class if it looks like the weather would make driving to the location dangerous. Class can easily be rescheduled.

We have been attending swim lessons for a few months now, and we have been extremely satisfied! Raymond is fantastic to work with. His priority is not just safety, but to also instill confidence in each of his students! My children have learned to be safe and truly enjoy themselves in the water. We no long have an aversion to water in our faces, and we have learned to be confident in the water! This program has also taught my children to challenge themselves and reach their goals! We hope to continue and graduate from the entire program!

My husband and I gave swim lessons to our 2 year old grandson for his birthday. He loved the classes and really enjoyed all the instructors. The class size was very small so he received plenty of attention. He’s taking a break for a few months but he will be back for sure. We were very pleased with British Swim School.

One of the best decisions we ever made was choosing British Swim school in Chattanooga with teaching our children to be comfortable around water and most importantly learning water safety. Our toddler was afraid of water wouldn’t get in a pool without being held 2 1/2 months after being here at British Swim school he is jumping in the water, floating and going completely under, has also learned how to safely get himself in and out of the water. Our infant is already bumped up one class and can go underneath water without fear and loves the water now as well! I would recommend them to absolutely anyone who ask. Having Fun while learning is always great for children and they will definitely accomplish that at British Swim in Chattanooga!!

If you want to learn survival swim techniques while having fun I definitely recommend this swim school, Raymond is great ! very knowledgeable personable professional and caring. The staff is fantastic, my son isn’t a fan of water but these professionals have made him very comfortable and confident with the water and himself. I’ve tried several swim schools and lessons and this is by far the best. Come learn from the best!!!!!

Both of my kids have been attending the British Swim school for about two months now. My oldest has learned so much in such a short amount of time. Each class she becomes more and more confident in the water. We had to take my son out due to his health and Raymond was very accommodating which was a relief. The staff is friendly, very knowledgeable and overall has been a pleasure to work with. Thank you all!

My son waits every week to go to British swim school. He love swimming and he enjoys the way teachers are making it easy for him . Teachers are fun loving and easy going. It is very convenient to cancel or reschedule any class. My son is learning new skills in his every class. I really see him growing in his skills in very limited time . I would definitely recommend British swim school.

We’ve had the BEST experience at British Swim School with my four-month old grandson! A calm, easy, gentle approach to swimming lessons. No “sink or swim” here!
The qualified instructors care about the baby and eagerly cheer him on to safety & swimming success. The learning activities are presented in a fun, systematic & thoughtful process engaging both sides of the brain, and proven to make swimming safe for an infant.
I’ve also joined my grandson to better my personal water skills and found the British Swim School approach to adults to be incredibly helpful, respectful, and encouraging.
We’ll both be set for summer’s swimming fun in just a few months.
As a follow up to this review: he is 16-months-old now and loves the water just as much as he did at four months! No fear. Always laughing and playing and splashing. Great work, British Swim!

Both our girls attend British swim school. All of the staff is nice and friendly for kids. What we like most about British swim school is progression according to skills. We don't have to wait for certain period of time to get into next level. Overall kids love to go there and enjoy learning with them. We would certainly recommend it to everyone who wants to learn swimming.

I did not learn to swim as a child which makes it hard to learn as an adult. Raymond and Brooke are amazing teachers. They are both very patient, encouraging and trained to understand the unique difficulties faced by adult swim learners. They teach survival techniques to build confidence. They are very good at explaining the ‘why’ behind the techniques to make it easier and more intuitive to follow. Highly recommend the British Swim School for your family swim safety and learning needs.

Im an adult that’s just learning to swim, so far so good. Kinda debated awhile before joining because I’m not the most coordinated person and neither am I a thin person lol.
I recommend anyone to give it a try. You never know, these swim lessons may save your life one day.
Very friendly, non judgmental environment. Staff are patient and encouraging.

Our son started swim lessons with British Swim School at 5 months of age. He is now 10 months and loves it! He has learned to go all the way under the water from the wall and comes up floating on his back. The instructors are knowledgeable and enjoy working with the kids. It’s been a great experience!

Great teachers and the website is easy to use and keep track of your lessons and payments. As an adult with no experience in swimming this helped me get used to being underwater, floating, and doing laps. Everything is kept clean and Raymond is very easy to contact and talk to!

I am so glad that I chose British Swim School to embark such a significant journey in my life. I was a person who was scared of water although loves to play with water. I avoided all possible swim learning opportunities throughout my childhood but now at the age of 30, I wanted to come out of that fear. Its just been a month with British Swim School, I am so happy that I feel so comfortable in water. The instructors are awesome, very kind and patient, very caring that they understand each student's chemistry with the water and then start working on it. The perfectly big enough (at least for me personally) pool size is another comforting factor. Sometimes, I can't believe myself that I am actually floating on water. Much much gratitude to all the instructors! I am looking forward to swim along with you!

Trainers are very friendly and they work on your child gently, never force the child for any goals. Trainers pay good attention to every kid and are very supportive too… My child completely love the swimming lessons and is very happy at British Swimming School.

I needed some help with my form to train for a triathlon. The instructor, Brooke, really helped me a lot with my crawl, breast stroke, and taught me how to do a flip turn. Staff were very helpful, especially Raymond, who got me set up in the right class for my skill level. I would definitely recommend for children/beginners, as well as for anyone just looking to make adjustments to skills you may already have.

They are very caring and nurturing! They take as much time as a child needs to ensure they are acclimated to the water and are enjoying learning. This is very important to prevent children from being fearful of classes. Love that they focus on water safety and survival training. Highly recommend them!
