My session plans are based on the client. I planned different for different clients depending on their level. I will start off with the basics for beginners and advance depending on what I see. For more advanced players, I will plan accordingly.

Coach Kareem is excellent. His personality really reassured my son, and inspired him to make his best effort. Probably the best thing is that he "explained skills better than any other coach." We look forward to more lessons, and recommend Coach Kareem to everyone else.

Jeffrey (CoachUp client)
I'm 30 and wanted some tips on technique because I never trained properly. Kareem showed me the nuances of the basics: receiving the ball, first touch, change of speed, shooting. I learned something in all these areas. But the most important thing was him encouraging me to play with confidence, to believe in every touch and every play.
Michael (CoachUp client)
We wanted our son Max to get better with his foot skills and coach Kareem's first session addressed just that! Max really enjoyed the drills, Kareem kept him engaged and for more than an hour. He gave him useful pointers and throughout all Max had fun! We are booking more sessions with Kareem.
Samantha (CoachUp client)
My 9 year old son really likes Coach Kareem. In just two lessons, he sees an improvement. He will be taking a lot more lessons. My son is obsessed with soccer and coach Kareem was just what he needed.

Kareem runs some great drills with our U10 player that are immediately transferable to game play. He has a calm, easygoing style and takes time to explain/correct mechanics as needed. Good about scheduling sessions.
Keith (CoachUp client)
Kareem is an experienced and knowledgeable coach, who fully understands the game and what skills a player needs to develop in order to become a stronger performer. The drills he ran with my two 10 year old players were immediately applicable to real game situations and they were able to improve their abilities right away. And importantly for me, I was able to see positive changes in their game effectiveness immediately.
Kareem does a great job of coaching and has a comfortable, easy style that encourages kids to do their best. I would highly recommend him for your athlete.
Erica (CoachUp client)
Kareem was a fantastic coach with my 11 year old daughter! She noticeably improved and gained confidence in just one lesson with his expertise and personalized attention. He is responsive and works really well with kids. We would highly recommend Kareem and will most definitely have him coach again!
Ralph (CoachUp client)
Coach Kareem is great. Will definitely work with him again.
John (CoachUp client)
Coach Kareem is such a great teacher of the game right away he picked up on my sons dribbling flaws and corrected him and was so patient with him thanks coach Kareem.
Adam (CoachUp client)
My 14-year-old son is just starting out with Kareem. They had a very good session and Kareem established good communication and motivation.
Jonas (CoachUp client)
Couldn't recommend Kareem more highly. He was really invested in me understanding the proper technique and even stayed late with me to make sure it clicked.
Colleen (CoachUp client)
My boys really enjoyed working with Kareem. He is very patient and is excellent at demonstrating what he is teaching. I highly recommend Kareem as an coach/instructor.
