Get to know Andre
Let's make you good to great, one day at a time.
I love breaking down the game of soccer and zeroing in on the details that separate a good player from a great one. I’ve come to appreciate this sport far more as an adult than I ever did as a kid, and that perspective shapes how I coach. I look forward to working with your athlete to build a personalized plan that helps them reach their full potential.
How I can help you improve
My coaching philosophy is rooted in player independence. On match day, there are 11 players on the field, and I can’t guide each one in real time — so I focus on building players who trust themselves. I want them to take what they’ve learned in practice and apply it confidently in the game. Having worked with athletes ages 5 to 18, I focus on helping each player recognize the strengths they can build on and identify the weaknesses holding them back.
A typical training session
1-on-1 Private Sessions begin with a dynamic warm-up featuring movement exercises I’ve picked up from physicians and athletes throughout my life. From there, we move into plyometrics, passing, dribbling, shooting, and defending drills, all within a focused one-hour session.

We booked a trial lesson with Andrea to help build our 5-year-old's confidence before his soccer league evaluation, and it was a great experience from start to finish. Andrea made the session fun and engaging by using props and tailoring the lesson to our son's interests — he was smiling the whole time. Beyond the lesson itself, Andrea was quick to respond to messages, patient with all our questions, and showed up early rather than just on time. It was the perfect first lesson to get our son excited and ready for his evaluation. Highly recommend!

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I contact a coach?
If you’re looking to message a coach for the first time, go to their profile and click “Send a Message”. A type box will show, where you can enter and send your message. To follow up with a coach you've already contacted, log into your account and find the 'Inbox' tab. You'll see your message history and be able to send another note.
How do I book lessons?
Once you find a coach that fits your needs, go to their profile, select the package you'd like to purchase, and click 'Book Lessons'. Here, you can reserve your desired number of lessons along with the number of athletes who will be training. After sessions are booked, coordinate the dates/times for each session on your calendar - using the calendar is important since this is how your coach will get paid.
Can I pay my coach via Venmo or cash?
Paying AU coaches via cash, Venmo, or any 3rd party is strictly prohibited. AU coaches know this, but their partnership with us is to split all bookings 80/20 - so coaches keep 80%. We use our 20% to help them find clients & manage their business. Without the split, we wouldn't be able to help our coaches & community thrive!
What if I don't feel comfortable paying online?
We integrate with Stripe - the largest & most secure payment processor in the US - to facilitate bookings. Paying online is required, and it simplifies the process for our coaches since it helps track their schedule & earnings in one place. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our support team.
Where will the coach hold their lessons?
Each coach typically has at least one preferred training location. You can see the location(s) by going to your coach's profile and finding the 'Training Locations' section. If a coach doesn't have locations listed here, you can message the coach to see where they train. Some coaches are willing to travel to clients for lessons, or even meet halfway.
When is the coach available to train?
Each coach sets their own schedule for training. You can see a coach's general availability by going to their profile and finding the 'Availability' section - it will list the days and times. If a coach doesn't post their availability, or if your preferred coach doesn't have your desired times available but you want to double check, message them to see if they can work with your schedule.
How do rescheduling, cancellations, and lesson credits work?
Good Fit Guarantee — If your first lesson isn't the right fit, we'll move your lesson credit to a new coach. No hassle.
Easy rescheduling — Cancel or reschedule up to 4 hours before a lesson, no questions asked.
Coach no-shows — You'll be fully credited and we'll help you find a replacement.
Flexible credits — Unused lessons last 12 months and can be used with any coach on the platform.

Do coaches work with both kids & adults?
Our coaches are open to helping athletes of any age and skill level. Please message your desired coach to ensure their skillset fits your needs.
Why should I trust AU and their coaches over other platforms?
AU was created by former college and pro athletes. We understand the benefits of training with a private coach. It develops discipline, boosts confidence, and provides an undeniable advantage - whether you are just learning the game or looking to earn a college scholarship. All AU coaches are required to pass a thorough onboarding process + background check, so you can trust you're training with the best.
At the end of the day, our mission is to provide athletes with better opportunities to succeed through coaching. You won't find a platform, and group of dedicated specialists, more excited to help you achieve your athletic goals!
