Farber Swim School is a family-owned swim-lesson school in Beaverton (with a second SW Portland location), not a summer camp. It teaches private swim lessons in warm saltwater pools for ages four weeks and up, progressing from basics through competitive strokes. The school offers year-round individualized lessons rather than an enrolled day camp.

Powered by GoogleWe love Farber Swim School! Teacher Olivia is a ray of sunshine and has been phenomenal at teaching our son how to swim (and our family how to help him do that!). Swim lessons are a highlight of every week! We also appreciate how flexible the class policies are and how accommodating and communicative the staff is. Highly recommend!
Prices are good if you pay for months in advance. Very flexible with rescheduling when you miss a class. Staff is nice and helpful. We've had our youngest take lessons since she was a baby. It's helped her with her confidence in the water because she started so early.
I've been taking adult lessons for several months. Some instructors are great, some are terrible. I've seen job postings for the company and they do not pay enough to keep anyone good for long. They seem to exclusively hire instructors that look nearly identical, which is not the case with swim lessons elsewhere. The customer support and communication is poor at best, but that goes with the territory of what they value in running their business.
We love Farber! We’ve been coming to Farber for almost 4 years. Both my girls have really enjoyed their Baby Classes. We learned water safety and swim skills and it’s such a nice time to bond with each of my girls. Teacher Annie is amazing! We also love Teachers Dana and Cathleen but honestly all are great! Highly recommend the open swim time as well. It’s super affordable ($4) and fun to just splash around year round.
We love Farber Swim School! We have been in the baby and me swim lessons for over a year and a half now. My 2 year old knows water safety skills and LOVES the water. Our teacher is Annie and she is AMAZING! Definitely sign up for lessons or even drop in lessons to check it out. Very reasonable priced too!
