School of Rock

This place is such a gem. The loving care that goes into every aspect of this place is felt- in addition to being ridiculously talented and skilled teachers, Jeremy & Rachel, the owners, are incredibly dedicated and have created such a beautiful, warm & welcoming community & an environment in which students can truly come into their own. The combination of 1:1 instruction & group classes in which students learn to listen to & play / perform with each other makes for a really well rounded experience. While the value of 1:1 instruction is undeniable, before coming here I hadn’t given much thought to how little sense it makes that most places don’t offer group instruction… music is a collaborative art & there’s so much learning that comes in playing together (& performing together). Doing so is also great inspiration to practice & grow as a player. My son has been here less than a year & I’m blown away by how much he’s learned… & love that his passion for playing has only grown. He looks forward to every 1:1 lesson & each class. Thankful beyond thankful to have found this place.

Our family loves the Hoboken School of Rock. It's been a huge opportunity for our son to grown his musical skills. Jeremy and Rachel who run this location are excellent teachers and are 150% committed to the kids. I can't recommend School of Rock highly enough and the performance program is absolutely wonderful. I honestly wish SOR Hoboken had been open years ago. My son was 11 when he started and the growth I've seen in the last year and a half - his ability to get on a stage and sound like part of a real band - is so impressive.

Updated: As a parent of one of the children who performed at the live show referenced by Amir in his/her review I also want to say that SOR had to find a way to bring the children together safely to share their hard work during the pandemic. I'm sensitive to noise disruptions myself and honestly feel that SOR did the very best they could by the kids and the community and it's unfortunate that one day of children sharing their musical talent led a neighbor to such an unkind review. SOR is exceptionally devoted to the Hoboken community and children and have somehow managed to make remote teaching a success during this very difficult year. I would encourage Amir to reconsider his/her review knowing how many families benefit from SOR Hoboken.

What School of Rock Hoboken provides to my child has been nothing short of exceptional.  From the technical lessons to the band opportunities to providing an environment in which my child has been allowed to grow and flourish both technically and personally.   They have supported his growth as a musician and his evolution personally responding with grace, care and some taught lessons.  We couldn't be more supportive of the school/programs, and more grateful of what they have provided both to our community and to our family.  Thank you to Rachel and Jeremy -- ROCK ON!!

Rachel and Jeremy are wonderful people and very generous with their talent. They shine best when you see how proud they get when the kids perform. Its amazing how much work they put into those concerts. It’s a truly wonderful community. My kid goes to little wings class and I’m taking classes myself. It’s amazing how music build self confidence in kids. I’m a big fan of SOR Hoboken.

I can't say enough about the instructors and owners at SoR in Hoboken. It has been a lifechanging experience for my son - who has truly emerged as a drummer the past two years. From the individual lessons (shout out to Steve) to the group sessions, the opportunities to perform, and the personalization that Rachel and Jeremy (the owners) put into each kid's music journey...it has all been awesome. They have also put a tremendous amount of effort into helping the kids continue making music together safely during the pandemic - which has been such a bright light during this time. Whether it's remote zoom lessons, piecing together recorded clips of each of the kids playing the same song, maintaining the highest standards of safety, or working painstakingly to secure locations for the kids to perform - they have done it all. And I'm so sorry the daytime outdoor concert over the summer negatively impacted neighbors of SoR, but for the few hours that weekend that our kids got to rock, to see the fruits of their efforts - sticking with it remotely during the long, hard months of lockdown...it was everything.  If you or your kids are music lovers, or you want to foster a love of music in your kids - send them to School of Rock in Hoboken. They will be in excellent hands.

British Swim School at The Waldo School

Our soon-to-be 4yr old has been attending swim classes with British Swim School for more than a year now and he absolutely adores coach Jessica. She is kind, gentle and has a LOT of patience! She also makes the classes a lot of fun with games like green light, red light and ring the octopus.

We highly recommend British Swim School's classes for not only their program structure and facilities but also their coaches!

My daughter and son started lessons because of their fear of water. I wanted them to not only overcome their fear, but to love being in the water. Jessica is amazing and has helped both of them so much. She’s kind, patient and persistent! I love how she opens each class with a quick game to warm them up sociably. Even when they had other instructors (Jariel & John) I loved their approaches and my kids were always comfortable. I feel safe going to the pool with all of my kiddos knowing they know how to stay safe and they have survival instincts. Not to mention how much fun they have! Thank you!

Our son Hughes loved Jessica and the whole staff there - they could not have been more warm and welcoming! Jessica was so patient and flexible every step of the way and we can't thank her enough. She was wonderful and we are so grateful for her for teaching out little guy to be a brave swimmer!

My five year old boy loves the swim classes with Jessica. Jessica is nice, patient, and lovable! The swimming pool is salt water and shallow. So kids should feel safe in it. The place is also clean and cosy. But no shower.

I cannot say enough about PS 16 and instructor Zoe! I have been to other locations and many instructors and she is the best! My daughter normally can cry or get nervous with Zoe and the well organized and runned atmosphere here- she felt safe and had fun!!! Thank you Zoe!

British Swim School at PS16 – Jersey City-Paulus Hook

Swimming survival lessons have never been easier or more fun for both my kids. I can’t thank their teachers enough for their kindness, patience and perseverance to help them understand and master water survival concepts! My daughters teacher Gabby when she moved on to Minnow is ALSO SOOOOO AMAZING

Kids been in British swim in ps16 for months and we are very happy with the progress.
They love Ms Tiara and improve so much and so fast under her guidance.  She’s friendly but firm, and has a way with the kids. Another shout out for Ms Chrysler who is so fun and energetic and kids enjoy and laugh in the pool with her! Other teachers are also very nice too. Staff are so friendly and helpful :) always trying to find best solution for us and I really appreciate it.
Definitely recommend this swim school in the 07302 area!

My husband and I have been trying to learn swimming for a very long time and have tried a couple of instructors in a facility close by. The service was so terrible that we lost a couple of thousands of dollars and couldn’t even float. British Swim School has been a swimming life changer. We could do the basic arms and legs independently in the second session itself and we are hopeful again.

The instructors Rose, Tiara and the Deck Ambassador Sally are AMAZING!!! Rose and Tiara are patient and know what they are doing. Sally is always welcoming and very very accommodating with the make up sessions and cancellations. We were thinking of changing the location to another one for weekday classes but these gals kept us hooked and we continue to go to PS16 location even though we are paying a little more than other locations ;). But it’s totally worth it!

The British Swim School program at PS 16 in Jersey City is exceptional! The instructors are incredibly patient and encouraging, creating a safe and supportive environment for the kids to learn and enjoy swimming. My child's confidence and skills have improved significantly, and they look forward to every session. Highly recommended for any young swimmer!

Great staff; excellent methodology for getting little ones comfortable with water! Highly recommend Melissa, who has been so patient, kind and creative all while keeping a great sense of humor to engage our child with the water.

British Swim School of The Retreat at Bothell

I could not recommend this place more. We started attending with our daughter from the tadpole classes (infant stage) and the whole process has been wonderful with the staff being patient and comforting every step of the way as our young child familiarizes herself with water. The staff teaches critical water safety skills and allows every child to progress at their own pace. The swim classes have not only been valuable but also incredibly fun for our daughter as well as us as parents! The location itself is also wonderful, clean, and conveniently located.

My daughter was removed based on the wishes of her grandmother excuse me but I’m her legal guardian. Not her grandma. Secondly why wasn’t I notified. If they only allowed the parent to make the choices for their kids I wouldn’t be ticked off. Now I’m on the waiting list thanks to her unqualified grandmother.

Small, crowded place. Messy, ice water. Humid, moist air.

I got 3 last minute cancellations by the school, they always called one hour before my morning classes. Pool is poor managed by the community and the school just rent the pool from the community, water is colder than other pools, not an ideal pool for little kids.

British Swim School at 24 Hour Fitness - Bothell

We are so happy to see our daughter's steady improvement and confidence in swimming. She joined BSS as a Starfish (this is basically like Level 1 with no previous swim lessons) just earlier this year so it's very evident how far she's come. The instructors she's had have all been wonderful. It's clear they are well trained in teaching children- they are kind, patient and make learning fun!

My daughters have been with BSS for over year. We have tried so many other swim classes but have found this one very consistent and kids friendly

Coaches are very professional and friendly as well.

A very positive experience overall 😊

Very pleased with the instructors and customer service. My kids improved a lot in four months of lessons

Very patient staff, kid friendly atmosphere, and safety conscious.

Such great instructors, professional musicians, a wonderfully fun safe environment to try new musical adventures. I highly recommend it to anyone who will listen.

Enrolling our son a little over a year ago at the School of Rock Red Bank has been the best decision we've ever made. Our son has made new friends, improved dramatically in his drumming and has had amazing live show experiences. The drum coaches, band directors and managerial staff have been more than accommodating, compassionate and knowledgeable. Our son is excited to attend rehearsals and drum lessons every week. He practices every day and doesn't feel like it's a chore. He has since made House Band, which has afforded him new experiences with a close-knit group of musicians who work together like a well-oiled machine, under the direction of Ryan Roberts. I can't say enough about our experience with the School of Rock. If I could give them 10 stars, I would.

My son really enjoys going there. He seems to have learned a lot in a short period of time. We are very happy customers!

My son has been taking guitar lessons with Brendan, he’s a great instructor. Ashlee also does a great job!  Highly recommend School of Rock in Red Bank!

My son and daughter have found their niche with SOR. The lessons they've had in the past were unproductive, but since starting with SOR, they've come leagues ahead with their skills and love of music. They actually practice at home! They both look forward to their lessons and jam sessions and always want to arrive early so they can spend time hanging out with the instructors and friends they've made there. Excellent people. Excellent program!

British Swim School at Liberty Terrace

British Swim School at BMCC

My wife and I found British Swim School at BMCC only few weeks ago and we love it! Director is always there on site and everything is running smoothly. We tried other schools prior and so far British Swim School is THE BEST every step of the way. This swim program is FANTASTIC with real progress. My 2 kids are in Swimboree and Turtle 2 (green) levels. We see progression after each class. Really worth every penny.

As a grandmother of two toddlers, , the main thing I was looking for in a swim school was pool safety. BSS has a primary focus on survival skills. After a child has mastered survival skills, they then graduate to learning proper swim techniques. My six years  old and two year-old grandchildren have been to their respective classes few times now and I’m already seeing progress. I’ve appreciated the methodical approach the instructors take and I also appreciate how good they are with the kids. Overall, we are happy thus far and will continue with more classes, I’m so proud of the progress I’m seeing. Thank you BBS, Julie

As a mom of an infant and toddler, the main thing I was looking for in a swim school was pool safety. BSS has a primary focus on survival skills. After a child has mastered survival skills, they then graduate to learning proper swim techniques. My six month old and three-year-old have been to their respective classes twice now and I’m already seeing progress. I’ve appreciated the methodical approach the instructors take and I also appreciate how good they are with the kids. Overall, we are happy thus far!

My child learned to swim within a short period of time. Moved up from starfish to minnow to turtle 1. Instructors are really nice and professional! They really care for progress of kids and management are very helpful and professional people!! We are so happy to find this swim school! Thank you!! We love you!!

We’ve been taking lessons at British Swim School for a couple of years, and now there is another convenient location downtown. Passionate owners, great instructors, and well-thought through swim program suitable for kids any ages. Highly recommend!

Kiddie Academy of Tribeca

Our 2.5 year old son has been attending Kiddie Academy for almost 2 years and we could not be more grateful for the care he gets there. The staff are kind, loving, communicative and generally amazing. Not only does my son LOVE going there everyday, but we love bringing him. The staff and other families truly feel like an extension of our own family. We not only plan to have our son attend for as long as he can, but we also have our older daughter attend camps when school is out and she loves it too! If you’re thinking of sending your child here stop thinking and just do it! Kiddie Academy helps children thrive.

My son attended Kiddie from age 1.5 till 3. He absolutely flourished and grew so much here.  He looked forward everyday to going here in the mornings and was excited to chatterbox me back what his teachers said during the day.  Unfortunately we moved away from Manhattan recently  and so had to move on.   He has been asking to come back all the time for Ms Julia and others.

The place is well run.  It is priced very competitively well relative to other institutions in the neighborhood. You are also kept up to date on any plans, policies, changes etc.  The place is clean (back when you could go inside it), they keep individual items well segregated as well.  They have an awesome gym room for the kids to play around in.

During my kid's time here he learned to talk, learned his abcs, numbers, saying sentences, was potty trained, and well socialized with lots of other kids.

Our profile.  We are a working couple so needed something that is flexible, well located, and low drama where we could get excellent care.  Kiddie @ Tribeca fit those needs well.  We will forever be grateful and have fond memories of our time there.

My wife and I both work and have never lived nearby our extended families.  And although we have considered having a nanny in the past, we want our children to begin learning at a young age.  So day care has been a requirement of our busy lives.  We have been customers of The Goddard School in the past (when we lived uptown) and although we like it, we LOVE Kiddie Academy even more.  The Kiddie Academy of Tribeca is really the perfect combination of safe play, directed learning, and family-like attention and care.  Our son will continue attending here until he starts Kindergarten and we have a baby on the way who will undoubtedly be attending as well.  Thank you Ms. Julia & Ms. Lenae for helping our son love school and the day care experience so much!

We just moved to the area this summer and were incredibly lucky to have found Kiddie Academy. Our kids absolutely love it and all of the caregivers. They run into school every morning so excited and love telling us about all they learned when they come home. We were lucky to have had a good daycare before we moved, but Kiddie Academy and all of the caregivers there are truly superb. We were very trepidatious to have our kids go back to school during the pandemic, but the school is so meticulous about their safety and health protocols that we feel safer having them there than anywhere else. The school is very lovely, spacious, and clean. Ms. Julia and the team are wonderful and we highly recommend!

We've been bringing our son to Kiddie Academy of Tribeca for a few months. It was his first time in daycare and he was unhappy to be leaving us but they couldn't have made it easier. The staff are kind and patient and made our son feel right at home.  The facilities are state of the art and the program is well structured. We love it and so does our son.

British Swim School at Wall Street

I really appreciate Aubrie! She is very trustworthy instructor who has gentle smile all the time. My son has made such an amazing progress with her. He used to be afraid of water but he got over it plus loves so much to go to the British swim school!

Both my children and I have improved our swimming skills within these few months. The entire staff have been excellent towards us and extremely patient. I highly recommend it to anyone that is interested.

It’s a phenomenal place. A swimming instructor, EJ sang a lot and used a bunch of toys to get my son’s attention and he had so much fun there even though it was the first class for him! Also thanks’s to friendly Lourdes, I felt so comfortable!

The teachers are great for building confidence especially for adult first time swimmers and its in a very convenient location. Best part of the week is coming for my lessons and after only 4 classes im already freeform swimming.

Dannah is amazing! My son is so comfortable swimming without fear with her and I see how much confidence he has with her being his instructor!
