I’d strongly advise anyone considering Swim Now to think carefully before booking lessons.While working there, I was asked to teach clients far beyond my level of training — including those with disabilities and competitive swimmers — despite making it clear to management that I wasn’t qualified for this. I raised concerns about clients not getting what they were paying for, but was still assigned these lessons and told not to mention my qualifications or experience level to clients, in case it discouraged them from booking.In lessons I was confident teaching — particularly with beginners — I saw a clear pattern: many clients had been attending for six months to over a year without learning even the basics. In several cases, as soon as they were switched to me, they picked up key skills in just one session. That really highlighted how ineffective the teaching approach was. Swim Now seemed to encourage instructors to stick to the same repetitive routines — like walking up and down the pool or chatting to “build confidence” — rather than teaching proper technique. It felt more about keeping clients booking lessons than actually helping them improve.I’m not writing this to be negative, but to help people make an informed choice. If you’re looking for real progress and good value, I’d recommend looking elsewhere
