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.

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.

Teaching Philosophy

I believe that great golf instruction starts with understanding why — not just what. Having competed as a tour professional, I know firsthand what it takes to build a swing that holds up under pressure, and I bring that competitive insight into every lesson I give. My approach centers on the biomechanics of the golf swing: identifying the root causes of issues rather than treating surface-level symptoms. I break down complex mechanics into clear, digestible concepts so that every student — regardless of skill level — walks away with a real understanding of what they need to do and why it works. Every lesson I deliver includes a detailed video analysis with a voiceover explanation of what I see in your swing, followed by a personalized demonstration video of the specific drills designed to guide you in the right direction. The work doesn't stop when the session ends — you keep the videos and notes to study and revisit on your own time. I aspire to get 1% better every day, and I hold my students to that same standard. Whether we're working together online or face-to-face in Chicago, my goal is the same: to give you the tools, the understanding, and the confidence to play your best golf.

About the coach

I'm a former tour professional and dedicated golf coach based in Chicago, Illinois, with a story rooted in an unshakeable passion for the game. Growing up in Thailand, golf was never just a hobby — it was my calling, my only plan. That singular focus drove me through a competitive playing career and ultimately led me to where I am today: helping everyday golfers unlock their potential through expert, personalized instruction.

I specialize in the biomechanics of the golf swing, with a gift for making complex technique simple and actionable. My coaching style has helped golfers of all levels — from beginners picking up a club for the first time to competitive players looking to sharpen their edge — improve their game and reach their goals. With over 3,400 lessons delivered and more than 1,000 students coached online, I've built a proven system that gets real results.

For in-person students, I coach at Ace Golf Club (indoors) and The Preserve at Oak Meadows (outdoors) in the Chicago area. For those who can't make it to Chicago, I bring the lesson to you through video analysis and remote coaching — with turnaround within 24–48 hours. Every lesson includes a voiceover swing analysis and a personalized drill demonstration video that you keep forever.

I built Rati Golf on one core belief: improvement is a daily commitment, and it never stops. If you're ready to invest in your game with a coach who has competed at the highest level and knows exactly what it takes to get there, I'd love to work with you.

Great coach. He was able to identify the deficits in my swing and provided good feedback with a plan to improve my swing. I came across him on IG and he comes as advertised

Awesome coach, really willing to work with your swing. I was really struggling with certain feels, and Rati made a pivot and we figured out a feel that worked for me.
