Teaching Philosophy

My coaching philosophy is simple: every golfer is different, and every lesson should reflect that. I take a personalised, no-pressure approach — whether we're working on your full swing, sharpening your short game, or building the confidence to handle awkward on-course situations. I believe that understanding what your swing is actually doing, and why, is the foundation of lasting improvement. That's why I lean into technology and data — from video analysis to sensor-based feedback — to give you clear, objective insights that you can act on right away. I'll build you customised drills that fit how your body moves, so changes feel natural rather than forced. Before I came into golf coaching, I spent 20 years in retail, which taught me how to listen, connect with people, and explain things in a way that makes sense. I bring all of that into every session — on the range, on the course, or online. Golf should be enjoyable, and my goal is always to make it more fun while helping you genuinely get better.

About the coach

I'm a PGA coach working out of Broome Manor Golf Complex in Swindon, and the heart of what I do is helping everyday golfers play better golf and enjoy the game more. My journey into coaching is a little different from most — I spent 20 years working in retail before making the switch to golf instruction. That background gave me something I think is just as valuable as any technical qualification: the ability to connect with people, understand what they need, and communicate in a way that actually lands. Whether you're a complete beginner or a seasoned club player looking to sharpen up, I meet you where you are. I coach across all areas of the game — full swing mechanics, short game, and building the kind of consistency that holds up when it matters most on the course. I'm also a big believer in using technology and data to take the guesswork out of improvement. From detailed swing video analysis to sensor-based feedback, I use every tool available to make sure we're working on the right things, in the right order. With over 316 lessons delivered online and a strong track record of in-person coaching at Broome Manor, I've built a reputation for being patient, positive, and genuinely invested in my students' progress. If you're ready to start seeing real, lasting improvements — let's get to work.

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.
