   Tried group lessons for my child with another provider which was a complete waste of time and money as they had too many kids which meant that my child only got to practice for about 5 mins out of the 30. Someone recommended private lessons so after a bit of research I stumbled on 3S. Decided to send 2 of my kids together so did a 2 to 1 class and what a difference that made. Now it's not cheap but the focus and attention they got meant that they progressed much much faster than in group lessons. Our instructor was Vera and I can't speak highly enough of her. The kids love her lessons, she is patient and encouraging, whilst demanding when she needs them to focus. They have responded with greater enthusiasm which reflects the relationship they have with her. 13 weeks in and they are confident in the water. Can swim on their front and back, happy to jump in the deep end, tread water and generally have (safe) fun in the water. 3S have been awesome as well. Prompt communication, clear pricing and a host of instructors who are all similar in that they are great with your kids and really get the best out of them. Whether you're looking for group or private lessons, I would seriously give 3S a chance as having a great teacher makes a massive difference to how quickly you progress and from my experience, they have better than great teachers! Thank you 3S and more importantly, thank you Vera!

   ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ My son really enjoys his lessons with 3S Swim School. His swimming instructor Fernando has a very calm and encouraging approach, giving children the independence and confidence to learn at their own pace while still being pushed to improve each week. The school also communicates clearly via WhatsApp and is very accommodating with requests and scheduling whenever possible. We’ve been really pleased with the progress and the supportive environment. Highly recommended!

   Charlotte is a passionate instructor at 3S Swim School, she knows where the child is at, through regular observations. Charlotte pushes them to do better and I could tell the difference in my child's swimming capabilites.

   My daughters (4 and 8) have just finished a week of crash course swimming lessons at 3S Swim School and they loved it! Both were beginners and have made so much progress in just a few days. Zach, Shama and Vera have been so patient and amazing. Zach especially made my 4-year-old’s very first swimming lesson so memorable and she couldn’t wait to get back in the pool the next day. The booking process was really quick and easy, and Tim, the manager, has been so helpful from start to finish. We’ve already booked a second week. Such a brilliant, confidence-boosting experience!

   We are incredibly grateful to 3S Swim for the amazing swimming experience they provided for our children. Unfortunately, we have to discontinue their lessons as we are moving to a different city, but we wanted to take a moment to express our heartfelt thanks. Both boys absolutely loved every moment of their lessons. The teachers at 3S Swim not only helped them build confidence in the water but also made every session fun and engaging. Their love for swimming and the skills they've developed are a testament to the exceptional teaching they received. A special thank you to their incredible teachers—Katie, Denz, Enrique, and Adam—whose dedication and patience made all the difference. We’ll always look back fondly on their time at 3S Swim and carry forward what they've learned as they continue their swimming journey. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for everything. Wishing the entire 3S Swim team all the very best!

   I was reluctant to write a negative review, due to not wanting to impact a business. However, I did provide feedback to the owner and they didn't respond to me. Also, i feel that other parents could avoid the money I wasted. I paid for two 10 blocks of 1-2-1 swimming lessons for my daughter. This equates to 5 months. By the end of this my daughter could still barely swim, baring in mind that before she had some experience in the water. The swimming instructor was nice enough, but she didn't explain instructions clearly to my child who kept having the wrong techhnique. This would involve me having to intervene to explain to my daughter what she had to do. I saw no development in my child's swimming. Also, they don't communicate with parents about a child's development. I had to keep asking. After this, I decided not to stay with 3swim and booked private swimming lessons elsewhere. After two 30 minute lessons, my daughter can now swim 4 metres unaided with a backstroke and can do a front crawl for 3metres. The new swimming teacher always checks her understanding and i dont need to intervene. I provided feedback to 3swim and they didn't seem to care, instead trying to put the blame on my daughter's ability. This was concerning as from a baby my daughter has loved the water and moved stages quickly. In this new swimming company, she has progressed incredibly quickly and has focused on perfecting her strokes.

   Its great to participate my kids with 3S Swim. Kids are really enjoying the lessons I would like to take this opportunity to mention two drawbacks which may be helpful to improve quality of service delivered 1. The pool temperature was below 18 degrees Celsius during winter time and kids was shivering and made them sick 2. The instructor couldn't establish good communication with kids.

   Sima is a fantastic teacher!! She is very patient, understanding, calm and very encouraging. Best swimming teacher ever!! Also our son did the week crash course - great sessions that every day built on the next. Loved it. 3S Swim School instructors have been amazing, and filled my son with confidence in the pool, and he loves coming to 3 Swim School lesson every week. Sima (teacher ) really helped build up his confidence and gently encourages him each week to go a little outside her comfort zone. I’m so pleased with his progress and new found enthusiasm for the water! Great option for private classes ! The BEST OPTION EVER!!! I am very happy with the result and would recommend 3 Swim School to everyone:adults and children learners who similarly want to learn this key skill.

   I'm a much older learner, and whilst it's tough, the instructors really keep you going. It's a great workout for me and I feel my fitness level has increased. I find swimming really helps my muscles which get tense when sitting at my desk at home 7 hours a day. My swimming is slowly getting better, and the instructors want you to learn using the correct techniques which is very important. I'm much confident in the water now and im sure I will continue to improve.

   Excellent Swimming school, I couldn't reccommended them enough. My Son has come on in leaps and bounds since swimming with 3s Swim School. We have tried group swimming lessons at local leisure centres in the past but just felt like we never really made any real progress with the actual swimming. But 3s have provided a structured 1-2-1 experience that has really worked wonders for my boy. The instructors are super knowledgeable and very patient and deliver a high level of teaching. 3s Swim School are professional and any queries are always followed up in a speedy manner.
