This is the latest testimonial from Sharon Ng~
Dear Sir or Madam,
I would like to express my thanks for arranging my swimming lessons with instructor Alvin Ong.
With Alvin's coaching and guidance, I was able to make significant progress from one who totally knew nothing about swimming and had great phobia just putting my head, holding my breath under the water since young to being able to enjoy simple swimming across the pool in just 3 months, something I thought I would never be able to achieve after so long!
I enjoy attending Alvin’s lessons because they are very systematic and allow real beginners like me to grasp the movements of the stroke step by step logically till we are able to combine them altogether. Alvin is also attentive to his student’s learning progress. He constantly focuses part of the lessons to make sure I am aware of and to correct or overcome areas that I am weaker in. He also makes sure we learn essential water survival techniques alongside the learning of the swimming strokes. I can see and enjoy my progress after each lesson and i feel really great!
I am really glad I signed up for the private swimming lessons with Happy Fish Swim School and under the guidance of a great instructor. I now enjoy swimming as a form of past time, exercise and leisure.
Thank you. I really appreciate it.

Success Story shared by Kunal Jindal
I am writing this testimonial for Mr Alvin Ong..
Firstly, let me objectively talk about my swimming capability before the classes and also the results achieved ..
Background- For 24 years (my present age), i wanted to learn swimming, but could never attempt to do so primarily because of high power spectacles i wore from a small age, which made it difficult (uncomfortable) to go into water. I went for LASIK around 12 months back, so i was keen to learn swimming ever since. But the challenge for me was my age and the zero experience in swimming.
Results- In 6 classes (6 weeks of individual lessons), I learnt Breast Stroke and Freestyle Swimming. I had confidence to go into the deep waters alone.. Offcourse, I still need more practice to perfect the strokes, but I believe being 80-90%there in two strokes (of swimming) in such timeline given no previous experience is a big achievement.
I would like to heartily thank Alvin for being a great mentor/coach/friend for the last 2 months or so and being the enabler of such spectacular results.
Some of the admirable things i picked up about Alvin..
1)Alvin has a great passion for the sport of swimming and that reflects in his body language. He is personally motivated to make others learn swimming. He keeps encouraging me to go for life savers course to enable saving lives even well after i have stopped taking the classes..
2) He is very skilled at the intricate details of the art of swimming. He also has immense experience (more than 10-12 years)in being a swimming coach..
3)He also has a very friendly and approachable nature which enables students to ask even stupid questions and get their hesitations removed.. He even spent time for a post swim - tea discussion and a dinner with his other students (including me).
4) He is genuinely interested in students progress and challenges them for the next level of learning-irrespective of time/money/other constraints- I wanted to learn as many strokes as possible within least time and he was very very supportive/encouraging of the idea.. The testimony of that is the incredible results achieved.
5) He is also willing to put in the extra effort in order to get students coached. As i was interested in learning snorkelling, he even picked me up from my office and took me to a shop for the equipment, bargained for me and got me a good deal.. He also taught the basics of snorkelling (beyond swimming to me)
6) He is also enouraging to students to think beyond swimming.. He also motivated me for diving course in Malaysia once i was skilled enough..
Thanks Alvin.. Hope you are just as motivated to teach others the art of swimming throughout.

Inspring Success Story by Penny
Dear All,
Here's a feedback from our student Ms. Penny.
Thank you for arranging my swimming lessons with Ms Kum today, at Toa Payoh Swimming Complex (every Weds 7pm).
I am very impressed with Ms Kum. She is exactly what a swimming instructor should be - very professional, thorough and speaks well. Started off with completing a form, giving our personal details and next of kin contact in case of emergencies.
Begins with some theory lessons on preparation before swimming. No eating at least 3-4 hours before classes. No wearing ear-rings or other jewellery. Don’t exercise in water too much before class as this will tire our muscles quickly. Rules of swimming: never swim alone – always be with someone. When swimming in the sea, always swim along coastline, never towards the open sea due to strong tides.
Ms Kum also showed the proper way to enter the pool using ladder. Thereafter, started breathing techniques, arm movements, head control in and out of water. The right way to pull legs under water to a stand position. When to use float, when to let go, how to float.....
Before I knew it, the lesson was over. It was a very productive first lesson and I really enjoyed myself very much.
It is very important and beneficial to both parties that theory, structure, understanding of swimming, environmental conditions should be acknowledged, not merely just getting in a pool and splashing around. As a beginner, the crucial facts of swimming that Ms Kum highlighted to us 3 ladies yesterday are extremely significant and of valuable information. I did not know it myself. As much as swimming is an enjoyment, we should also be advised of the dangers it entails and the consequences leading to mishaps.
I look forward to many lessons with Ms Kum.
