About
My names Jackie Luong and I currently am a Scholarship Athlete at the Divison II level , playing basketball for Sonoma State. I’ve been doing private, and group training as well as coaching club basketball for 3 years now. I really enjoy making a positive impact on the confidence of my players, while incorporating fun and enjoyable drills to make their game improve overall. I enjoy managing and being able to pivot around all types of different players, and the skillsets they need to improve on in order for their game to evolve. I currently train in San Francisco, South San Francisco, and various local park and recs.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I tend to gauge how open and comfortable my clients are at first, and get a feel for how I can make them more comfortable, yet allowing them to enjoy the workout and fall in love with basketball as the workout progresses. I then find ways to connect on a different level with them, which may be non-basketball related and connecting with them through similarities. Therefore, allowing them to gain trust in my ability to teach them, and overall gaining a deeper connection with them so that it's a fun environment to workout in.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I currently play basketball for Sonoma State, as well as coach for a AAU program SF champions during my off season, and have been playing college basketball now for the last three years, have receieved many awards such as First Team All-League at the High School level, and college level as well. I have also received First Team All-Academic in the State. In addition to being Top 3 in California in 3 Pointers made in one season at the Junior College level shooting at 41% for my freshman season.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
I charge $70 per 1 on 1 private session, which includes court time paid for as well as consisting of a 1 hour training session. Group session prices may vary depending on how many clients are attending that training session. I am always open to negotiate pricing as well.
How did you get started teaching?
I was always a self-taught player growing up, learning all the drills and moves I do on my own, and finding ways to do them on my own as well. This helped me gain leadership qualities and eventually starting to teach my clients what I've learned and taught myself over the years
What types of students have you worked with?
I have worked with male and female students whom are shy, outgoing, quiet, talkative, from ages 9-27, I am open to working with all types of students.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
What they really need to work on to be able to succeed in games and when it really counts. I am a big believer in messing up during practice so that we don't mess up as much in games.
