Curious is he teaching what some of the slow pitch hitters do? I think they call it a cut down swing.I had maybe 5-6 hitters work with him through years. He taught hitting down on ball and lot of forward tilt.
The ones it worked well for had a shorter, stronger build. But taller girls.....oh man it was a disaster. Generally they moved on after few months.

Believing in one set of mechanics is one thing..believing in one style (eg setup) is entirely different.
Guy hit over .300 3 straight years for the Sox..
He does color for the Sox now..he's pretty good.You mean the Greek God of walks, who waddles like a duck
You are making a big assumption here that the coach actually understands what needs to be done. The quality of coaches in school ball varies so widely, and the biggest problem is most coaches don't realize where they fall on that spectrum.
I usually just assume everybody is an idiot until they prove me wrong..The unacknowledged problem is that the quality of coaches who give private lessons varies just as, if not more, widely.
The big problem is that every private coach thinks they know something, and quite a few don't. A lot of school coaches who don't know a lot also aren't trying to change too much, so they won't do a whole lot of damage.
