What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
always ask why a coach wants you to do something. If they can't give an answer other than "that's how it is supposed to be", I would recommend finding another coach.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
what their goals are, with golf, life and school. They all could intertwine easily. What their motivation is to take lessons.
