I’ve spent years teaching golf to everyone from elementary-school beginners to seasoned bogey golfers in their 60s. One thing I’ve learned is that progress comes from repetition—not from long, complicated lessons or high-tech gadgets. In fact, two short 30-minute lessons are far more effective than one long session, because most students don’t have the time to practice enough to absorb everything at once. And while cameras and swing-analysis apps can look impressive, they rarely help unless a student specifically wants them and knows how to use the information. My teaching philosophy is simple: start from the true basics, see students frequently, and let them practice correctly right in front of me. The fundamentals done well—grip, stance, setup, and simple movement patterns—create real, lasting improvement. I also try to keep golf affordable. Students shouldn’t pay for things they don’t need. That’s why I keep my rates low and let students choose their own learning environment—from their living room to a premium simulator studio, depending on their budget. You bring the space; I bring the lesson. If you want straightforward instruction, honest feedback, and steady improvement without the unnecessary extras, I’m here to help.

"I think the lesson was so helpful. I enjoyed the combo drills and the serving and volleying practice. Those parts really stood out. I’d like to do more all-around practice, particularly focusing on hitting the ball crossing the court better. Alex is an awesome coach and knows exactly how to help you improve your technique and also explain it really well.

"That lesson with Frank was quite helpful. I especially appreciated the way he explained some key strategies, and the lesson highlighted how important the fundamentals are. Still, I think adding more drills and rallys could really make a difference in building consistency. Yeah, Frank's approach feels practical, and I’m hopeful that with a bit more focus on rallying, I’ll see further progress. If you're looking for someone who knows their way around tennis lessons, you might want to give Frank a try.

"Oh, the lesson was a pretty good intro to golf, honestly. I appreciated learning how to grip and swing properly, and it’s definitely a solid foundation. Though I need to practice more swings and hit more balls to solidify those new habits, I feel like this was a helpful starting point. Aron’s approach made things clear without overloading me, and I’m still hopeful about applying what I learned moving forward. If you’re looking for a straightforward introduction with someone who keeps it real, you might want to give Aron a shot.
