WGC Academy Private Instruction - 2008

The chief goal of our instructor / coaches is to help you learn.

Our professionals use a variety of teaching aides, developmental drills, video and computer analysis to communicate.

All our teachers are PGA members or PGA apprentices.

Private lesson formats:

For players of all ages and ability levels.  We look forward to working with everyone.

One on one instruction (player / instructor), semi-private (2-3 students with one instructor), small private clinics (4-6 students with one instructor), nine-hole playing lesson on 18-hole or Par 3 course to work on course management (one player / one instructor). 

It is our strong belief that the most effective method for marked improvement is creating a relationship with your instructor.  This allows time for student practice and continued feedback from the instructor.
