Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
My process is tailored to each individual player. After an evaluation session, I create a program that is specifically designed to maximize the players' desired area of improvement. From hitting, to infield, to pitching, any aspect of the game, including mental approach.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have several certifications from USA baseball, as well as many years of playing and coaching experience
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
I don't necessarily have a standard quote. There are many factors that go into my pricing. The first session I offer at no charge as it is an evaluation for both myself and the player. It's important to make sure the professional you are hiring is a good fit.
How did you get started teaching?
I started coaching after I was honorably discharged from the Marine Corps. My little brother's team needed a coach and I stepped up, having enough playing experience and having had some amazing coaches and mentors throughout my life
What types of students have you worked with?
I've worked with student from age 5-55 years old at various skill levels in the game of baseball
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
I'm most fond of the 5 star review from my first student on this platform. He is a pleasure to teach and his dad is also extremely involved. It is clear to me that he puts in the work after our lesson is done as well as when we are on the field together
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
I would say ask questions, be clear on your goals, and expect to work hard and have fun!
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
The biggest question is "what am I hoping to learn?"
