"My lesson with Emmy was quite informative, especially since he analyzed my faults and focused on the basics like paddle control, follow through, and stance. Still, I need to keep working on integrating these habits into my play, though. I am not happy that AI or your website just summarized my previous feedback and said I could clear it all or edit it. Well, I listed just about every individual task that Emmy helped me with and it was summarized out in his review. Don’t have the time to list it all again. Whatever. As my 5 stars stated, Emmy’s lesson was awesome for me.

My name is Josh Adelsberg and I have been a dedicated soccer player for practically my whole life. After completing my high school career and while continuing recreational play in college, I plan to stay involved with the sport by spreading my knowledge and experience to all those who want to learn. I started my career at PSA as the captain of my team and transitioned into high school soccer where I played 4 years on varsity. Through that time, I developed many connections in the amateur and professional soccer world. My coaching philosophy starts with understanding a player's needs by both watching and listening to them. Coaching is both about giving my personal, experienced opinion as well as listening to the wants of the player. It is important to not only have short-term goals set at the beginning of any session, but also long-term goals for the future.
