Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
Depending on age and skill level there is a brief dicussion with the parent and/or student to understand their needs for building skills and to grasp their personality so the instructors can understand how to best work with them and motivate them.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
All of our instrcutors are trained by our professional training staff which consists of our ownership group; Clint Zavaras, Billy Martin, and Mark Holzemer. This insures that each instructor has the ability to teach and inpart the knowledge they have picked up from their own college or professional playing careeers to the students.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
We have three pricing tiers:
Tier One Baseball is $50 a half hour or $100 per hour
Tier two Baseball is $60 a half hour or $120 per hour (this is our ownership group)
Softball Pricing $45 per half hour and $90 per hour
How did you get started teaching?
I am the GM at Slammers and played baseball in college until I hurt my arm. I have coached for 15 years at various levels and instructed the past 5 years at Slammers.
I have a BA in Business Management with a minor in sports management. I direct all of the instructors and coach youth select team and assist on a High School Select team in the summer and fall.
What types of students have you worked with?
Our staff has worked with all levels and ages of players from 5 years old to current professional players.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
I would suggest getting a lesson. If you like your instructor and connect with them, and feel your are getting better, then that is a good pairing. DO NOT be afraid to try new instructors occasionally to see what others have to say on the same subject.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
What they want to get out of the lesson or lessons? What goals they are trying to reach?
Then, during lessons and after lessons communicate what you liked, didnt like, or what you did or didn't understand.
Communication is KEY!
