Hello! I am a tutor currently based out of Wilmington, Delaware. I have received my Bachelors degree with a double major in Educational Studies and Theatre from Dickinson College, and am currently pursuing my Masters in Theatre with a concentration in Pedagogy/Performance at Virginia Commonwealth University. I have three years of writing tutor experience under my belt, and have recently completed a year substitute teaching at Salesianum School.

Originally from Australia, and a member of both the Australian and US PGA's as well as being an NCAA Coach, former Tour Player and NCAA Athlete, Matt is one of the leading developers of Junior Golfers in the Northeast. With over 55 players having come through his academy and gone onto play college golf and hundreds of junior tour victories to the academies credit, Matts Player Development portfolio speaks for itself.

"I hadn't seen Matthew in at least 20 years. My son and him are best friends, and I came up to see him at Power Golf while he was home from the U.S. and teaching in Canberra for a few months. My God, I can't believe that this little boy that I used to coach in basketball has become such a knowledgeable, patient, and extremely attentive professional golfer. It was the best lesson I ever had. And I can tell you that 30 years ago, when I was teaching him basketball, I could never have thought that he would be giving me a golf lesson indoors, of all things, and fixing my slice in one hour. Thanks, Matt. Happy travels back to the U.S.

Hi, my name is Chris, and I’ve been playing pickleball for over 3 years with a strong passion for both competition and coaching. I’ve competed at a high level, including the Collegiate National Pickleball Tournament, after earning a bid to qualify. I focus on helping players improve fundamentals, strategy, and confidence, whether they are beginners or more advanced players. My coaching emphasizes clear instruction, game-like drills, and skills that transfer directly to match play. I bring a positive, energetic approach to every lesson and aim to make each session fun, productive, and motivating, helping players enjoy the game while improving quickly.

"Chris is a great coach. I’m a beginner and we focused on just a couple things so I wouldn’t have too many thoughts in my head. He broke down my movements and had me focus on fixing just one thing at a time. I’m a work in progress, but a little less so. More lessons will make me better! PS. This app sent us to a park with no courts and their customer service is…poor. Chris and I found another court a mile awayourselves. Again, he’s 5 stars. The app, 1.

Just a fellow pickleball addict that fell in love with the fastest growing sport! With my ping pong background I've grasped the sport and picked it up quickly bringing me to a 4.0 level in less than a year. Playing in cross club 4.0 league to continue learning and improving my skills has propelled me to my next chapter of joining a 4.5 division team this coming season just shy of 2 years into this sport. I'm a student of the game but have been helping many people along the way and the world would just be better with more people playing this game! Looking forward to challenging you physically and mentally while having a lot of fun together!

"I’ve been taking lessons with Justin for about a year now, and I can’t recommend him enough. I came into pickleball with absolutely no sports background, and thanks to his coaching, I’ve worked my way up to playing at a 4.0 level. One of the things I appreciate most is how good Justin is at spotting the little technical details that make a huge difference. For example, something like hitting the ball as it’s coming down from the apex or making a small adjustment to my footwork or paddle position, he’s able to catch things I would never notice on my own. His explanations are simple, easy to understand, and actually stick. He’s patient, encouraging, and always knows how to break things down in a way that builds confidence instead of making you feel overwhelmed. Every lesson feels productive, and I always leave with something new that makes my game better. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely excited for you to get better, Justin is an amazing coach.

Fueled by a strong love of the game, I bring my college athletic experience and two years of playing to every lesson. I strive to make learning pickleball engaging, fostering both skill development and a genuine enjoyment for the sport. Let's improve your game! At 19 years old i’ve played tournaments and won local leagues at a 4.0 level and am currently working hard to improve past that myself. I’d love to help you or anyone else you know the skills and art of pickleball!
