Phoebe G.

The instructor's qualifications have been verified.

Pheobe was great. She provided two three hour lessons for our two girls aged 15 and 10. Both girls made really solid progress over the two days and couldn’t have been more complimentary about the standard of instruction they received. Would highly recommend Pheobe and will certainly be re-booking when we are next in Zermatt. Thanks again!

I chose Phoebe because of her strong reviews and was not disappointed. I am a confident/fast intermediate who can ski anything on piste, but I used to fall apart as soon as I went off piste. I spent three mornings with Phoebe focusing on deep snow, off piste, and also my general on-piste technique. I am now a much better skier than before and her advice was invaluable. Phoebe struck a good balance of giving advice, letting me ski ahead, letting me follow her, and also videoing some of my runs so I really got a lot of input and benefit. We also had fun, seeing most of the Zermatt area and getting the benefit of Phoebe's great knowledge about the area. Beyond the excellent tuition, Phoebe is a pleasure to spend time with and I highly recommend her to anyone, whatever their level of skiing. She is qualified to a very high level so can do the extreme stuff if you want or cover the basics.

Phoebe G is a wonderful teacher. She saved my wife's ski career as my wife is a bag of nerves and needed the right encouragement and coaxing. My son is a talented skier and learned an awful lot from Phoebe. I improved more with Phoebe's tuition than I had anywhere before. I would recommend her highly. Not all ski lessons or teachers are the same. Phoebe was great at seeing what we needed and was very adaptable. Many teachers aren't like that but she was top class. We actually hoped she would set up her own school with like minded teachers, she was that good for us. Would highly recommend Phoebe

I’ve had the pleasure of skiing with Phoebe over four ski seasons, and I have never had another instructor since finding her. Having had many instructors over the years I can say that she is quite exceptional. All the things I think should come as standard - reliability, punctuality and commitment - she has as a given. More importantly Phoebe is so good at understanding a) what you want to achieve b) the psychology behind what might be holding you back. I was an adult beginner and lacked in confidence despite several weeks of private lessons before I met Phoebe. I had resigned myself to never going beyond the simplest red runs, avoiding poor visibility days and only skiing runs I already knew. Within three mornings of skiing with Phoebe I felt comfortable enough to ski with friends with much more experience than me. And in my next week’s lessons with Phoebe I skied my first black run - something I had never even thought I would want to do let alone be capable of. Phoebe is really great at correcting the basics, building upon those (speed, stance etc), and helping you nail things like parallel turns, but all while allowing you to feel like you are on holiday. She quickly realised that I’d spent hours repeating the same run with previous instructors and, once checking my ability, allowed me the joy of actually gaining mileage and exploring the resort. This did so much to boost my confidence. Critically for me, Phoebe has a wonderful sense of how far to push you to gain confidence - she always read me well and assessed my tiredness level, mood and appetite on each day of my holiday, while continually giving me a sense of achievement that made me want to do more. Phoebe picked up so much from small things like the tension in my shoulders, and quickly pinpointed which elements of the sport I found mentally challenging and gave me the tool kit to deal with those elements with confidence. I should also add that she is also great company and knows all the best pit stops! It is more like skiing with a wonderfully patient and considerate friend than paying for lessons. My husband - who has skied all his life - has been super impressed with what Phoebe has done for my skills and confidence. Enough so that he will finally ski with me! I will definitely ski with Phoebe again (I actually choose her over my friends/husband now) and can’t wait to introduce her to my son and get him on the slopes too.
