What our clients are saying…

“John Bierkan worked for me at Doral. He trained here. By training, I mean serious maniacal training that eventually propelled John to the top of the teaching profession. He’s a real pro who can also play the game of golf at a very high level. Not many teachers can make that claim. I’m honored to call John a good friend.”

Jim McLean
Golf Digest Top 50 Teacher, Owner of the #1 Golf School in America, 1994 PGA of America Teacher of the Year, Jim McLean Golf School
"John is hands down one of the best teachers in the country! His work ethic and information base along with a sincere interest in each student was evident in the 5+ years we taught together. Whether leading a corporate clinic or helping a first time player learn the basics, I'm certain there are not many better. John possesses the total package which a golf professional should stive for, knowledge, appearance and a true dedication to the game."

Justin Sheehan
