Aside from knowing how to teach the golf swing, Andre is known by elite golfers as a mind/body golf guru. National champions that Andre coaches for the mental game include Mike Bell, 2006 United States Senior Amateur Champion, and Domenico Geminiani, the #1 ranked junior in USA and Italy. Geminiani,14, is the youngest player to ever play on the European tour (The Italian Open, 2010).

Andre has been grouped with World Hall of Fame Teacher, Bob Toski and the coach to Tiger Woods, Hank Haney, when he was selected as one of the top 50 Teachers in America by Golf Range Magazine. Andre is also recognized as one of America's Top 50 Teachers in the country for children by USKids Golf.

Andre started his teaching career 20 years ago in Sarasota, Florida. In 2003, Andre became one of the few PGA Master Teaching Professionals in the country. Andre has an extensive background in psychology and was one of the four developers of the first authentic Golf IQ. He delivered information extracted from his research to PGA professionals from around the country when he was an educator for the PGA of America. Andre's PGA awards include Junior Golf Leader, Teacher of the Year (2 times), Horton Smith (for education) and The Bill Strausbaugh Award (integrity, character, and distinguished service).
