Teaching Philosophy

My philosophy is simple: stop collecting golf tips. Start following a plan. Too many golfers bounce between swing thoughts, YouTube fixes, and advice from playing partners — and nothing sticks. What they actually need is clarity, structure, and a system built around their own game. My job is to simplify that process. I combine detailed swing analysis, ball-flight principles, biomechanics and performance coaching to identify the areas that will make the greatest difference to your game. Through my four Golf Development Pathways — Lower Scores, Scratch, More Distance and Golf for Life — I provide personalised coaching, purposeful practice and ongoing feedback to help you work towards your goals. Whether you're trying to break 90, become a scratch golfer, gain distance or simply enjoy more consistent golf, we'll develop a plan that suits you. Better golf isn't about knowing more. It's about knowing what matters to you.

About the coach

I'm James Yemc, a PGA Professional and Golf Performance & Player Development Coach based at Hunstanton Golf Club, England.

With over 10 years of professional coaching experience, advanced qualifications in golf biomechanics and swing mechanics, and extensive experience working with golfers of all abilities, I believe that lasting improvement comes from understanding your game and following a clear plan.

My coaching philosophy is simple: Stop collecting golf tips. Start following a plan.

Too many golfers spend time practising, watching instructional videos and making swing changes without really understanding what's holding them back.

Frequently asked questions

What is an online golf lesson?

An online golf lesson is a way of learning golf skills and techniques from a coach or instructor through the internet, using video analysis, live coaching, or online courses. On Skillest, you can get private instruction with an elite golf coach without even leaving your home. Just record your golf swing and send it to your coach, along with any goals, questions, or other information that will help your coach create the right plan for you.

What are the benefits of an online lesson using Skillest?

Online golf lessons using Skillest offer many benefits, such as convenience, affordability, flexibility, and access to the largest selection of the most talented golf coaches in one place. Through video recordings, side by side comparisons, and conversations you have with your coach, you will receive comprehensive feedback on what you need to improve and how to improve these areas. When you get a lesson on Skillest, you don’t need to schedule a time or drive to your lesson. You can just record your swing and message your coach whenever you have questions.

How do I receive feedback from my coach?

You will receive feedback from your coach through the Skillest app. Your coach will record their own videos with their analysis as well as additional drills to work on and send them back to you inside the lesson. You can watch your coach’s analysis, which may include video, audio, text, or drawings and see the changes and improvements they suggest for your swing. You can also ask your coach follow-up questions you have, and chat with them through the app. You can also review your feedback and track your progress anytime on the app.

What are the different types of lesson plans I can purchase?

Skillest offers a variety of plans and packages available for purchase. You can purchase a single online lesson, lesson packages, monthly subscriptions, or live Zoom lessons. Many coaches also offer video-based courses in addition to one-on-one coaching. Note: Not every coach will offer each type of lesson plan available.

What are Courses?

Courses are a series of instructional videos created by expert coaches that cover a wide range of sport-specific topics. Whether you're looking to refine your technique, master strategy, boost your fitness, or enhance your mental game, our courses are designed to help you excel in your chosen sport—be it golf, swimming, cricket, basketball, or baseball.
