Shin Swim School 2318 South Garfield Avenue, Monterey Park, CA 91754

"I didn't know how to swim at all but at 31 yrs old I decided to learn, so i signed up here. By the 7th class I was already learning backstroke, which was a huge accomplishment for me bc I didnt even think that was possible! Coaches were polite & hands on and they answered my questions while learning the new techniques. Coaches also celebrate you when u accomplish something new, which helps boost ur self esteem. They also correct you when ur technique is off so u can be the best possible. This is a really great confidence builder. Highly recommend!"

"There were 18 students with 4 instructors today. One instructor was not paying attention to my daughter and let go her hands without watching, she choked on lots water and I watched her almost drown. I was just about to jump in the water to save her. If safety is your top priority, don't come."

"Shin Swim School is absolutely amazing. In a very short period my daughter has dramatically improved her swimming skills. The instructors have really developed her as far as how to properly breathe and properly move her arms and legs. If anyone is wondering if they should enroll their child at Shin Swim School do not hesitate. Shin’s pricing is very competitive. Secondly, the care and patience they have shown my daughter is truly appreciated. My daughter tells me after each class how much she loves attending here. My daughter feels she has learned a lot from this swim program. Mr. Shin thank you for the awesome program you have and the professional environment you provide yet it is very welcoming. We will gladly recommend other families to come check your school. Swimming is a necessity and we are so happy with your school and instructors.Lastly, as a parent you need to feel comfortable with anything that involves your children and Shin Swim School is that place you want to be part of. Hope this helps anyone considering this school. I wish more people would write positive reviews as it helps out the business but mostly the consumers/customers who are looking for information on a business. Good job Mr. Shin"

"We have had such an amazing experience here, my 3.5 year old has developed a real love for water and swimming. The coaches are extremely patient and kind, and the kids always look like they are having fun. The groups are mixed age, which is great because the older ones model what the little kids are learning. I cannot recommend them more highly."

"This is the worst swimming school I have ever seen in my entire lifetime. When you first walk in, you are hit with a insane amount of humidity and the smell of chlorine. At that moment, I realized that I messed up. I enrolled my son into this school having hopes that he can be able to swim. My son went into the swimming pool and the first few lessons were fine. All you do is bob up and down then the teacher pulls you along on a kick board while he kicks to the other side. Repeat. After a few lessons, a teacher grabbed my son and pulled him underwater and told him to circle his arms. he then pulled him back up and that was now part of his routine. Eventually they took away his kick board and now they were dragging him along as he struggles to breathe and not die as he wildly kicks and circles his arms without proper technique. Waste of time and money. Shin Swim School. More like Shin Drown School."
