"Oh, the lesson was a pretty good intro to golf, honestly. I appreciated learning how to grip and swing properly, and it’s definitely a solid foundation.

"That lesson with James was quite thorough, providing hands-on guidance beyond quick tricks, and he offered a few suggestions I can actually work on. Still, implementing these skills on the greens will be the real test, but I appreciate the focused approach. If you're serious about building your game step by step, maybe give James a try.

I’ve spent years teaching golf to everyone from elementary-school beginners to seasoned bogey golfers in their 60s. One thing I’ve learned is that progress comes from repetition—not from long, complicated lessons or high-tech gadgets. In fact, two short 30-minute lessons are far more effective than one long session, because most students don’t have the time to practice enough to absorb everything at once. And while cameras and swing-analysis apps can look impressive, they rarely help unless a student specifically wants them and knows how to use the information. My teaching philosophy is simple: start from the true basics, see students frequently, and let them practice correctly right in front of me. The fundamentals done well—grip, stance, setup, and simple movement patterns—create real, lasting improvement. I also try to keep golf affordable. Students shouldn’t pay for things they don’t need. That’s why I keep my rates low and let students choose their own learning environment—from their living room to a premium simulator studio, depending on their budget. You bring the space; I bring the lesson. If you want straightforward instruction, honest feedback, and steady improvement without the unnecessary extras, I’m here to help.

"Hey, so I had a lesson with Eric and, honestly, it was pretty good. The instructor was patient and really clear, especially when explaining the basics, which was quite helpful. Though I still need to work on my swing and hit more balls, I feel like I learned a lot in just an hour. That lesson gave me a solid foundation to build on, so I'd say it was a well-spent hour. If you're looking to get a good feel for golf fundamentals, I think you might want to give Eric a try.

Hi all - I’m looking for some new students for the winter season!
