How did you get started teaching?
Email or call
What types of students have you worked with?
All types. Ages ranging from 18-70. Special needs to professional athletes.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Ask a lot of questions about who you're hiring. Ask about certificates and education. There are a lot of bad coaches that over charge without the qualifications to do so. I charge what I charge because I expect you to get an education and because I have invested a lot of time and money into what I do to help my clients grow.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
"Am I prepared to make changes or am I ok being in my comfort zone?" If you answer "yes I am willing to move forward" do so and put in 100%. If not save your money until you're fully ready to commit. Good trainers want clients that follow through, see the value in the service, and strive to achieve goals.
