Teaching Philosophy
My coaching is built around simplicity, clarity, and long-term improvement. I believe every golfer has a unique swing, movement pattern, and way of learning — so coaching should never be one-size-fits-all. My role is to identify what matters most, simplify the process, and create clear steps that deliver measurable progress.
About the coach
Hi I am a PGA Professional of Australia. I’m back on Skillest now after a small entry into the Online coaching space a few years ago.
With 25 years of coaching experience, I help golfers at every stage of the game, from complete beginners building solid fundamentals, to elite juniors developing tournament-ready skills, to professionals sharpening performance under pressure. I currently coach over 20 professional players and work closely with elite junior athletes, while keeping my approach simple, structured, and tailored to the individual. Lessons focus on building repeatable ball-striking, better scoring habits, and a clear practice plan you can follow between sessions. If you want measurable improvement and coaching that meets you where you are, I’d love to help.

Thanks John. I appreciate the little things I need to go away and practice. Not everything at once. Cheers

John was very clear on pointing out my faults and gave clear messages on how to remedy and improve my swing.
