Does Jim Rempe still teach?

From what I've been reading, some people really can't understand the difference!

I've taken a few lessons from a few different pro's! The greatest lessons I've gotten were from Joe Tucker. But at the same time, a 2hr lesson from Funky where he gave me only one thing to work on was probably the most helpful to my game where I saw an improvement in less than a month!

How much of an improvement you ask?? I was getting 3 on the wire to 9 in 9 ball! A month later, I was giving them a game:)

I spent 200 on that lesson and I wasn't that satisfied for a couple days but I said I would do what he said! 3 months later,,,, I made a few g's from that lesson. And to this day I still consider that one thing to be the greatest lesson I ever took!:)

What's my point?? Don't ever underestimate what a great player will tell you AND don't underestimate what a quality instructor can help you with! It takes dedication!

Who's "Funky?"
 
Knowing someone who has know Jim for several yrs and who is a good player in his own rite , has told me Jim would be his first choice in getting lessons for a player who's at least a B player ,, he says his over all knoledge of the game his aiming techniques and pattern play are top of the line

Jim Rempes home on zillow. He clearly had a table in the basement which looks like it was sold prior to to listing the home.
 
If I recollect, both Rempe and Varner are both excellent teachers as well as being pro players.

The table was in a 22x27 family room. And this was hanging in a very large walk-in closet:

So not true. Sorry.

What this thread needs is a completely uneducated and inexperienced opinion, so...

I think when you're working on fundamentals, a professional instructor makes the most sense. They know what to look for in stroke and stance and how to communicate the necessary changes in a way that makes sense.

If you're talking about the mental game, strategy and shot selection though, a professional player is always going to be my preference. Unless you actually have a big tournament win attached to your name I just don't believe you know what it takes to perform under pressure and make the right decisions when it matters. I don't care how many road hustlin' money games you've been a part of in your past. In my opinion, facing another professional player in a big tournament is a real test of your mental game and decision making.

Just the $0.02 of a beginner.
