Pleasure in the job puts perfection in the work
The following paragraphs contain some of my teaching philosophy. If you read on, I think you'll see that philosophy reflected in the testimonials I've accumulated. I selected this slogan to head my web site because I am convinced the majority of us, including myself, think this way. I know when I like the job I'm doing it reflects positively in my attitude, my work ethic, and my productivity. It's catchy. My job is to make you a better golfer. I trust our sessions together will be fun and rewarding. I will do everything I can so that you too will catch the spirit of this great game.

Motivation
The key to becoming a better golfer is self motivation and work ethic. My instruction alone will not be enough. Oftentimes, after a lesson, I find my students return the next week having not practiced. As with everything else in life, you get out of it what you put into it. Be and stay motivated. You will improve if you put in the effort. You can be assured that I'll do everything I can to keep you motivated.

Knowledge
It's hard to figure out what to do when you are not sure why you are doing this. Much of playing golf is being able to self analyze. Most golfers do not understand swing concepts or why they do what they do end to end. These are the guys at that beat balls at the driving range, but never improve. My job is impart a solid understanding of the swing so that when you are practicing, you know why you are hitting both bad and good shots.

Perfect Practice
Dave Pelz has this saying, practice does not make perfect, practice makes permanent. This would imply that perfect practice would make permanently perfect. In my lessons with you we'll also establish a process to ensure that you practice as perfect as you can to make your swing as permanently perfect as you can make it.

Confidence
Given a good knowledge base, the ability to self analyze, a perfect practice regiment, and the motivation, consistency and confidence will come. It's a iterative process. That is, the more you know, the more you'll want to know, the better your practice becomes, the better the results, and the more you are motivated. You are more confident and consistent. The cycle continues.
