Everything about Crocodile Swimming Academy were dealt professionally. From the time I made an online inquiry and was able to receive a call from Captain Khalid upto the trial/assessment assisted by Ms. Reem and Coach Baraa up until actual swimming classes, everything was a breeze! This school is well-organized and have highly-skilled coaches. I love watching the kids having fun and learning at the same time. The coaches are very patient & playful with kids. They are dedicated in the small number of children they are handlingΒ and treating them equally, which is really a plus point. It was my son's 1st lesson yesterday but so far, I can already see his improvements not just in swimming but also socially (since he's a very shy boy). It's such an amazing experience not just for our child but for us, parents, too.

πŸ† Family Action Verdict

Best for children with a fear of water or those who have struggled in larger group lessons elsewhere. The small batch format and individually named coaches who track each child's progress deliver results that standard pool programmes do not. Adults learning alongside children are equally well-catered for.

β€œAmazing experience with good coaches. Very patient with younger children. Value for money since batches are very small and coaches give attention to each student. Overall, it was very good.”

β€œHighly recommended for you and your loved onces. My four-year-old son, who was initially afraid of water, has been training under the guidance of Coach Ms. Chima at the Crocodile Swimming Academy. I've also joined in and started learning swimming under Coach Mr. Aama's guidance. The experience has been truly wonderful! The academy has a separate pool for babies, clean and well-maintained changing rooms, and all the necessary supportive materials. They offer flexible timing, one-on-one sessions, and a clean ambiance. The facility also has sufficient parking nearby and a temperature-controlled pool, ensuring a comfortable learning environment. The coaches are incredibly friendly and supportive, and they've helped my son not only learn swimming but also build confidence and enjoy the process. Despite the challenges, they've been patient and encouraging, helping him overcome his fears. Swimming is a journey, and the coaches at Crocodile Academy are experts in teaching babies, toddlers, and beginners.”

Overview

Crocodile Swimming Academy runs small-batch lessons where coaches give individual attention rather than managing large groups. Coach Ms Chima is specifically praised for helping a 4-year-old with acute water fear make measurable progress. Coach Aama handles adult learners. The intake process is thorough β€” an online inquiry is followed by a call from Captain Khalid, then a trial assessment with Ms Reem and Coach Baraa before lessons begin.
