My son began taking lessons recently (after 3 years+ without lessons) and I couldn't have hoped for a better outcome so far. He was very anxious about having water over his face and would get upset even at the mention of anything swimming related at first. We opted for private lessons to ease him into it and build his confidence, and the care and compassion shown toward him by his instructor (Mr Ian) during the first few lessons has made it an easy transition and one he has adapted to quickly. I honestly couldn't have asked for a better fit as his teacher developed a strong trust and built rapport with both him and us from the get go and was clear in directing my son without being intimidating or stern. I now have a little boy who talks about swimming (and his teacher) with such enthusiasm and I am thankful to Paradise Swim for creating such an encouraging and family-orientated environment for him to learn. My daughter has now started group lessons too and looks forward to her classes with Miss Cheryl. We are excited to see both progress in the future. Thank you!
