As a current College soccer player, I have the best experience possible other than the professional pathway that I am looking to share with my players. I strive in teaching students at all levels who are eager to improve their game on the pitch. I have 15 years of soccer experience from top soccer coaches in the Illinois region. If you are looking to get more comfortable and learn new skill sets that will translate to the field, I am here to help.

I focus on the technique of all my players when I first evaluate them. I get a good understanding of where they are in terms of level of play and then focus on the steps to get them to that next level. All my sessions have a certain focus point on that day where I teach a specific skill.
A typical training session will last one hour long. The first 5-10 minutes will be a warm up session to get the players ready for the session. After, the session will include around 8-10 different drills that will all focus around one main skill that I will be teaching that day. The end of training will conclude with some sort of shooting exercise that is in a game format. I like to end with game like exercises to always conclude the sessions with a fun activity.
Have done private one on one lessons starting from Summer 2023.
I am actively coaching players privately.
The best coaches I had are the ones that work directly with you. My best goalie coaches would work directly with me on the problems they would notice on the field. This helped me focus on the little things that would make me more confident when it came to games.
While the main focus for my training sessions are to improve players, I believe that having fun and enjoying the learning process are just as important. When players are enjoying the drills and having fun, they learn more and work harder. I make sure that all my players always work hard and have fun to gain the most from each of my sessions.

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.
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.
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!
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.
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.
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.
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.
