“Great coach, only have had one lesson so far but I really love how he breaks down the mechanics and makes you take breaks when errors occur. I learned a lot in just this one lesson from wrist control to positioning to tempo. I can’t wait for future lessons!”Charlie D., studentAbout ParthMy coaching philosophy is simple: mastery matters more than time. I don’t measure improvement by how many hours someone spends practicing, but by how well they understand and can apply what they’ve learned. My goal is to help students master each skill as efficiently as possible.
I especially value passion, curiosity, and hard work. My favorite students are the ones who genuinely want to learn, ask questions, and put in the effort to improve. I try to create an extremely focused environment that rewards that mindset and gives students the structure and accountability to make meaningful progress.
I’m also the type of coach who can easily lose track of time because I genuinely love helping people improve. I’ll often go over the scheduled time if there’s more I want to teach or a concept I want to make sure a student understands—so if you have somewhere to be, you may have to remind me!
Ultimately, I want to develop outstanding, confident players who understand not just what to do, but why they’re doing it. My goal is to give students the skills and understanding to continue improving independently long after the lesson ends.Go to profile93GreatTop rated

“Evan gave good feedback on my weak spots, which I found quite helpful, and I’m feeling more motivated to start improving those areas. The lesson had some useful insights, and I appreciate the more thoughtful approach, though I still think some drills could help me build confidence. Still, I’d be open to trying another lesson with him to see how I progress.”Tomer B., student

“Coach Fahad is incredible with young golfers! My kid wanted to try a new sport over the summer, but was pretty intimidated about playing on a real course. We did a 10-lesson package over three months, and Fahad was fantastic. He gave great drills to practice between sessions and made sure to teach proper course etiquette and pace of play. Now my kid comfortably plays rounds with a group of friends their own age and absolutely loves the game. We’ll definitely be sticking with Coach Fahad—highly recommended!”Ali (., parent · shared by Fahad
