Private Lessons & Coaches in Windermere, FL

On top of being a two-time PGA Tour Event winner and long-time golf channel analyst, Ted is an exceptional coach. He began his love affair with golf at the age of five. Growing up in Pennsylvania, Ted’s parents would drop him off at the golf course in the morning and pick him up at night. He would practice all day and imagine himself playing with the greats of the game. He studied their swings and imitated them as much as possible. His innate ability to see his body moving in time and space was his talent, and it took him all the way to the PGA TOUR. He also currently competes on the Champions Tour. ​ ACCOMPLISHMENTS : Two high school State individual championships Attended Ohio State University on golf scholarship Three time Division I All American Five division I individual titles Les Bolstaed winner - low stroke average in the big Ten 1989 ​ THREE NATIONWIDE TOUR VICTORIES 1990 Gateway Open 1991 Provo classic 1992 Shreevport Open TWO PGA TOUR WINS ** 1995 Anheuser Busch classic 1999 Fedex St Jude classic ​ OTHER ACCOMPLISHMENTS ANALYST ON THE GOLF CHANNEL, TNT SPORTS, PGA.COM

"Surprisingly good at coaching. Excellent session.

I love private training because I do the things most coaches never even consider. With a U.S. Soccer C License and over 16 years of dedicated coaching experience, I take a truly holistic approach that goes far beyond technical skills. I uncover each player’s unique strengths, unlock hidden potential, and build the mental toughness and unbreakable self-belief that turns good players into standout performers — both on the field and in life. My only mission is helping you truly believe you’re capable of anything in this beautiful game.

"Liam met Jeff at the Hunters Creek Soccer Club recreational program when he was 5 years old. He fell in love with soccer thanks to Jeff, who quickly became his favorite coach. I want to say thank you Jeff, you have helped not only Liam, but also me! We now have shared so many great memories because of soccer, and we like to think it started with you!!

I bring 19 years of experience playing and learning the game of golf, with a background as a college-level athlete and collegiate golf team player, and extensive competitive experience. During high school, my team qualified for the state championships, and during that same period I competed in high-level matches, including a head-to-head match against Sam Horsfield, giving me early exposure to elite competition and pressure situations. While I have a strong understanding of the technical side of the golf swing, my teaching approach is not overly technical. I’m a feel-based player, and just like I play the game, I teach it—focusing on feel, awareness, and simple keys that translate naturally to the course. I believe great golf comes from understanding what to feel, not being overloaded with mechanics. A major part of my instruction focuses on the mental side of the game, which I believe is often overlooked. I’ve studied golf psychology extensively, including Bob Rotella’s golf psychology work, and I help students develop confidence, commitment, and trust under pressure. I’ve worked with golfers of all skill levels, helping students improve ball-striking, consistency, confidence, and course management. Every lesson is tailored to the individual, emphasizing changes that are easy to understand, repeat, and hold up on the course. My goal is simple: help you play better golf on the course, not just hit good shots on the range. If you’re serious about improving and want coaching that blends experience, feel-based instruction, and a strong mental approach, I’d love to work with you.

"I learned to grip my racket properly. Some warm up exercise. We practiced drinking and a new serve.

I played professionally for 5 years. Caddied on the LPGA before opening my own business. I make learning simple - fundamentals first, then learn how to move the body and the club will follow. There are only a few effective ways to swing a club, I teach a swing that is designed around a neutral spine. I want my clients to have the same, heathy swing - no back pain, hip pain, knee pain etc - from when they are 7 years old to 90yrs old without having to change a thing. I teach men and women of all ages - My youngest client is 7 and my oldest is 87. My first client was struggling to break 100, now he shoots in the 70s. I believe in doing the best I can with one person at a time. When they see success, their friends and family will want in on the experience of playing better golf. I also do: physical training, rehab, strategy and mental work for golf

"Zach has been an incredible influence on my son over the past year, not only helping him improve his golf game, swing, and course management, but also teaching him the mental side of the game- confidence, resilience, discipline, and composure. What makes Zach truly special is that he goes far beyond coaching golf. He genuinely cares about the athletes he works with. He has become a mentor and role model my son deeply respects. At 15, those influences matter tremendously, and we are so grateful for the character, integrity, and encouragement Zach continually pours into him both on and off the course.

"“When I first started playing pickleball I had no idea what it was, but I played tennis when I was younger so I figured I could pick it up easily. I was wrong. I had no clue where to even start, but luckily I found Coach Jasseim, and he simplified everything for me when I was over-complicating things in my head.
