Hello my name is Gerard from northern New Jersey and I teach ski lessons to all ages and skill levels all over the Northeast.
I have been skiing since I was younger, and I have experience teaching ski lessons to people and children of all ages and skill levels.
I have experience interacting with people, families, and especially children, in many different settings and from many different backgrounds. I come from a large family so I find I am attune to function well in hectic environments.
I have pedagogical experience in other domains, so I have to ability to draw from an array of techniques to communicate and translate desired behaviors. I find teaching skiing is not only physical challenge for the student, but often a mental challenge as well.
I teach skiing starting from the principal of the outer edges being necessary to engage in an early learning stage. I try to avoid the student from learning a triangle stop until it is necessary. *(Not all Pizzas are Triangles!!!)
My rates are much more affordable than the mountains, and lessons much more customizable to the needs of the student. The student comes first!
Please feel free to contact me. I am available for email, text, or call.
