Sign up process and monthly turnaround is tedious

Great program; my kids made lots of progress!

The instructor was very friendly and knowledgeable. Made me feel comfortable and confident having my child in the water.

Instructor was awesome. It was such a fun activity to do with my baby!

We loved his teacher this time! She was great at keeping the kids engaged and helping my son feel safe to try new things.

Have had a different instructor every class. No continuity.

Sense of community . Love the family atmosphere !

I’ve held back from communicating my experience in fear that a swim teacher would treat my child poorly due to my response but, they have already treated them

My kids did not have a consistent teacher and I felt the teachers were more more into their routine of teaching than seeing each individual student.

Dan is such a wonderful instructor that loves his craft. He explains things in a way that helps he relax being a 46 year old. I learned to float on my first lesson due to his calmness. I would definitely recommend lessons at the Briggs Y

The class does not teach anything related to getting child used to water. No tips have been given to help child used to getting water on head or face or anything else. Class will sing 1 or 2 songs then just have playtime.

The sessions seem a little chaotic and after 3 years of swim lessons my child still doesn’t know how to swim.

Teachers we're encouraging and patient.

More rigorous than the previous program we were enrolled in. Our kid is making real progress.

I have found that swim lessons vary significantly based on the instructor. My daughter's most recent instructor is a younger man who has been wonderful! He gives specific feedback in order to help students improve their form. Many instructors seem to go through the motions without seeming to care if students make progress.

Everyone is professional and nice. Especially Jackie who’s been so supportive and helpful.

The students spend a lot of time sitting around in the pool in Level 3 and not practicing their skills. Wonder if there could be more supporting student 2 at a time with back floats, etc. I just don’t see how my student will advance to level 4 at this rate.

They are easy going, understanding, don’t judge for showing up a little late, and know how to talk to and teach the children in a fun way in the water!

Unable to get into swim lessons like we need.

Great people and facility

I have found that the quality of the lessons vary significantly based on the instructor. Many of the instructors do not provide any corrective feedback that allows children to make progress improving their skills. Additionally, I don't feel that the class sizes at my daughter's current level (level 3) are small enough to allow for enough active instruction and practice.

Instructors are kind and patient. They help my kids build real skills. Despite the time limit and class size, they still get plenty of one-on-one instruction.

We’ve enjoyed the swimming lessons at the Y! I like that the classes for younger swimmers aren’t huge so that they can get individualized attention.

Staff do not help with enrolling for swim lessons, we have to look up every month ourselves if classes are available or not, have to wait for months to get into a class
