I had a real growth experience working with Ajay both for myself and with my son. He has a proven methodology that really elevated our putting and chipping, and when we worked on clubs and irons, he made a tweak for my intermediate-level son that was immediately useful. What I especially appreciated was that Ajay could recap our notes and methodology in a way that really embedded it in my mind. That made a meaningful difference in my gameplay and helped me actually take what we worked on onto the course. There’s no question that if I hadn’t taken a break from my previous lessons and pivoted to AjayI wouldn’t be where I am with my game today. I’m very grateful to him and really enjoy his teaching style.

I wasn’t excited to spend a whole hour on putting, but Ajay won me over. He explained that putting counts for more of your score than driving, then show me how to lineup the shot like a pro, where to stand, and how to swing like a pendulum. He’s patient, clear and encouraging, and I’d happily book him again!

Ajay is clearly very passionate about the game and has so much knowledge to share with his students. I’ve been working on my putting fundamentals with Ajay and having noticed significant improvement in only 2 sessions. I would recommend Ajay for beginner golfers without a doubt!

I had my first lesson with Ajay and he was very thorough and knowledgeable, explained golf starting from its origin. My 1 hour session with him was very fruitful and I definitely learned some basics of putting. He is an excellent coach.

Justin D.

Intermediate student

“Very well thought out and explained aspects throughout each part of the swing. Ajay was able to spot many of the key points in my swing that weren’t optimal and gave good points on how to fix it. I felt like I was set up very well to keep improving”

Questions about private golf lessons

What ages do you teach?

I teach golf to teenagers, adults, and seniors. I work with beginners through expert players, simplifying swing mechanics, ball striking, and short-game skills into clear fundamentals tailored to each golfer’s goals. If you’re asking about a particular student, share their age, golf experience, and goals so we can discuss whether the lessons fit.

Do I need my own golf clubs?

No, you don’t need your own golf clubs for my lessons; I can provide beginner-friendly clubs if needed. If you have clubs, feel free to bring them. You’ll need to purchase your own range balls at the driving range before the lesson.

What experience levels do you teach?

I teach golf to beginners, intermediate players, and experts. I tailor lessons to your goals, simplifying swing mechanics, ball striking, and short-game skills into clear fundamentals and actionable steps. Share your golf experience and what you’d like to improve so we can discuss whether the lessons fit.

Where do lessons take place?

I teach golf at courses around the South Bay, including golf courses in San Jose, Santa Clara,, Milpitas, Mountain View and Morgan Hill. Ask which venue is planned for your lesson before booking.

Can I take a lesson with a friend or family member?

I keep golf lessons individual so I can give each golfer my full attention and tailor instruction to their needs. You and your friend or family member can each work on chipping and the short game. Ask whether consecutive individual sessions can be arranged if you’d like to come together.

What happens during the first lesson?

In your first golf lesson, I’ll tailor the instruction to your experience and goals, explaining swing mechanics through simple feels and clear steps. We can focus on fundamentals, ball striking, or short-game performance; tell me what you’d like to improve so we can find a useful starting point.
