Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
We offer a promotional rate of $39.99 for one week including a uniform. They get to work out, learn basics.
Students are placed with other students of same age, rank until they are ready to move up to other classes.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I tried to show students the art of Tae kwon do as a use of everyday life by being a better person and seeing things that other dont see by training mind and body.
During the self defense and form classes, I teach as practial as it can be, so students can understand the difference of utilizing the technique. Therefore the students will build a good foundations and they can proceed forward.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
Price for classes are standar but likely to change with times. So please call for details.
How did you get started teaching?
As a student in Martial Arts, other instructors would always ask me to assist them teaching other students. Teaching others have made me a better martial artist all around.
What types of students have you worked with?
All types of students. From severe ADHD to just plain problem childs (due to enviroment and parents). We teach special needs people as well.
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
I recently attended a tournament where all the proceeds were given to St. Judes Children Hospital.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Make sure they are what they are when they are telling you they are. Ask for Certificates, call for reference....
Have them participate in classes before you put them to teach a class. Be sure they are willing to teach what you want to teach your studens and not what they think is right.
And as a Instructor who is hiring the other instructor "Be open to new ideas" specially if the instructor you are hiring is younger. Sometimes it can help you grow.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
1. Attempt to find the answer if possible by asking others of the same rank.
2. Think about the question before you ask or
3. Pay more attention in class (sometime the answer is right in front of you, you just need to open your eyes and ear)
