I have been a part of golf for almost my whole life from junior golf to high school and college level. I have studied the game and enjoy sharing what I have learned so others can get more out of their game. Looking forward to meeting you.

"Alright, Fernanda’s lesson was quite effective. Still, I think there's room for further refinement, but I’m definitely encouraged to keep practicing what I learned. If you want a measured and practical approach to golf improvement, Fernanda's worth considering.

I played 4 years of varsity golf at Wheaton North High School and then 4 years of college golf at Olivet Nazarene University. After graduating college with a B.S. in Sport Management, I decided to go after full time professional golf. I played professionally on the Midwest Golf Tour and on the SwingThought Tour from 2019-2022. In 2022, my wife and I welcomed our first child and I happily moved on from playing professionally and began my career in teaching. With me, you are getting an instructor with over 1,000 lesson hours of experience, and you are getting competitive knowledge from a player who has won tournaments at the high school, college, and mini-tour professional levels.
"We’ve been thrilled with Matt’s coaching. Ryan has been working with him for 3 1/2 years, and in that time, we’ve seen remarkable progress in his golf game. What sets Matt apart is his ability to make learning fun. He incorporates games and friendly competitions into the lessons, which keeps Ryan engaged and motivated to improve. Ryan always looks forward to his sessions with Matt!

My passion lies in helping golfers of all levels unlock their potential and discover the joy of the game and im committed to providing personalized guidance for each and every individual I teach!
"The game is fun now, before I was a little anxious coming to the golf course. I didn’t like holding other people up because I didn’t know where my golf ball was going. But now after only a few lessons I’m having much more fun on the golf course and losing quite a few less golf balls!
I’ve spent 19 years competing on the PGA TOUR, Korn Ferry Tour, DP World Tour, and Challenge Tour, winning events around the world and learning from some of the top coaches in golf. Now I’m excited to share that experience with golfers of all levels. My coaching is simple, encouraging, and focused on helping you hit the ball better, play more confidently, and lower your scores. Whether you want better ball-striking, more distance, a sharper short game, or smarter course management, I’ll give you clear steps that make real improvements. Let’s level up your game!
"I’m new to golf and Tano has made learning the game way easier than I expected. He’s super patient, explained things in simple steps, and the changes we made started working right away. Really enjoying the lessons!
