The student has goals and objectives. My task is to discover those from my initial interview and design the training to meet those objectives. For a beginning golfer I start with the basics to ensure the student can advance to a higher level. For the more advanced golfer we train to understand swing errors and the process to correct the errors.
I have had a love for golf for many years. In 2003 when I left an Information Technology management position and retired from the Arizona National Guard I made a conscious decision to work in a field I loved. I have not been disappointed and have had many rewarding experiences since then.
I have worked with students from ages 3 to 83. In that range there have been beginning students who never touched a golf club to students who have played for many years and are trying to improve to make their game more enjoyable.
Recently I instructed a student who was a good golfer. On championship courses he would generally shoot in the low 80's. After 3 lessons he shot a 75 at Seville. It was his best round ever. He then went on to win his flight at the Seville senior championship with a 77-76. I have instructed many other students with similar stories.
A perspective student should acquire background information on the instructor. Lessons handles this very well by showing the number of times an instructor was hired on Lessons and reviews to represent the quality of their work. Over the past five years I have taught over 3000 successful lessons.
