"Very understanding and patient with someone at a very newbie level.

For over 25 years, I’ve helped golfers of all skill levels—from beginners to current PGA Tour professionals—improve their game and reach their potential. My passion for coaching comes from the life lessons golf teaches: patience, discipline, accountability, and perseverance. I believe great instruction is about more than the golf swing; it’s about building confidence, enjoying the process, and helping each player grow both on and off the course.

"Took my very first ever lesson with Andrew. He was clear and very insightful with his instructions. He gave me exactly what I was looking for in a coach. I came away with drills and techniques that I can work on at the range. Rather than just hitting balls. I’m look forward to our next lesson and improving my game.

Welcome to Golf Lessons by coach Kollar, where passion meets precision. Mile Square Golf Club in Fountain Valley is my home course, where I’ll often be found, sharpening & working on my game.

As a graduate of Golf Academy of America, Carlsbad, California (unfortunately no longer in business), I studied the golf swing, psychology of golf, and complex teaching methods as well as golf game management. I also learned how to build and assemble golf clubs, as well as expanding my knowledge on the vast and complex rules of golf. During my 2 years at GAA, beyond my studies, I competed at a collegiate level, making the competitive Golf Team each semester I attended. I came to understand that there are no two identical golf swings. My job is to influence you to find the mechanically correct way to improve your swing and develop your short game, to help you enjoy golf more than you ever have!

"As someone who has never taken a golf lesson before, I wasn’t sure what to expect—but you made the entire experience incredibly comfortable from the start. Being a family friend, I thought I might feel a little awkward or out of place, but it was the complete opposite. You were professional, patient, and surprisingly good at explaining things in a way that made everything feel simple and doable. I appreciated how you broke down the basics without overwhelming me, and how you gave feedback that was encouraging rather than intimidating. What really stood out was how natural the lesson felt—like learning from someone I trust, but still getting the kind of quality instruction I’d expect from a seasoned coach. By the end of the session, not only did I feel more confident in my swing, but I actually understood what I was doing and why. For a first lesson, that meant a lot. Thanks for making the experience such a positive one. I walked in unsure and walked out excited to keep learning—couldn’t ask for more from a coach or a friend.
