"I started lessons with Andrew three months ago with some basic beginner skills, and the 10‑pack was exactly what I needed. He had a clear, structured plan for each session and taught me skills I could practice on my own and then come back to refine with him. He was flexible with where my skill level actually was, but he also challenged me in the right ways. That combination helped me move ahead much faster than I would have on my own. By the end of the 10 lessons, I felt confident playing in social games. Highly recommend him for anyone wanting real progress and solid fundamentals.
