Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
Student-athletes can expect a well-organized, intense workout including shooting fundamentals, drills, and short teaching seminars. Sessions are 90 minutes long. I will significantly improve the athlete's shooting accuracy.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Ten years as an Assistant Basketball Coach at the D-1 level---Akron University, Southern Illinois University-Carbondale, and Eastern Michigan University.

Standard pricing is $90.00 for a 90-minute session.
How did you get started teaching?
Graduate Assistant at Akron University, Ohio in late 1970's.
What types of students have you worked with?
All ages from beginningers to Div-1 collegiate student-athletes.
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
Worked with an adult student recently who was inexperienced in basketball and was impressed with his overall improvement in shooting accuracy in one session. Hard work and practice pay off if you've mastered the basic fundamentals of shooting!
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Make sure to hire a teacher---someone who understands the game and how to teach the fundamentals of shooting, dribbling, passing, defense, rebounding, etc. There is a big difference between a teacher and a trainer. A trainer can help you get in shape but may not really know how to teach you the game.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
1. What are my goals for the lessons?
2.What are my expectations of the instructor?
3. What are the instructor's areas of expertise?
