About The United States Golf Teachers Federation - Foreign Language Courses
(USGTF-FLC)
USGTF FLC was established by Brandon Lee(President of USGTF-Foreign Language Courses (Vice President of USGTF Domestic Development of Foreign Language Courses, WGTF Vice President of International Development, President of COIH Golf Inc.,) in year 2011 to deliver the educational theme of "Progressive Learning". Every year, there are so many foreign language speakers who want to be certified as teaching professionals from USGTF but test process and education system was only available in English that they were not comfortable and hard for them to get certified even though they were qualified with their own languages. Therefore, USGTF opened the door and now Certification Courses are currently being offered in KOREAN, JAPANESE , CHINESE and SPANISH for those who want to become qualified golf teaching professionals but lack proficient English to gain.(We will add more language courses in the future) These courses are conducted by the same standards and costs as the USGTF (English) courses.
