I’m Patrick “Patty” Zangerl, a state-certified ski instructor and ski guide. I’ve been teaching in the See ski area for 31 years. Today, I run my own private ski school here, offering ski and snowboard lessons for children, adults and private groups of 1–6 people, as well as guided ski tours.
I founded Patty’s Private Ski School See to offer guests a personal approach to ski lessons, with time for questions, exercises suited to their ability and direct feedback. For families and friends who want to ski together, this offers an alternative to a course with lots of people they don’t know.
I know the See ski area in the Paznaun Valley through my daily work on the slopes. This knowledge helps me choose terrain and exercises that suit your goals.
You can book a private group for 1–6 people, whether you’re coming alone, with family or with friends. If you have different goals or want to combine skiing and snowboarding, we’ll discuss the lesson plan in advance. Here’s what a private lesson for a family of three could look like.
Whether you’re a beginner, returning to skiing or an advanced skier, your private lessons start at your current level.
Whether you’re making your first turns, building confidence on the slopes or focusing on technique, choose the private lessons that suit you and your goals.
In my children’s ski lessons, kids learn through movement and playful exercises, using props such as balloons and small sticks. I adapt the activities to their age and ability, helping them build confidence on skis step by step.
Private ski lessons for beginners, those returning to skiing and advanced skiers. We focus on confidence, technique and feel for your skis, with individual guidance at your own pace.
Learn to snowboard or improve your technique with personal guidance and exercises suited to your level. Private lessons are suitable for beginners as well as riders who want to build confidence.
With private ski lessons in See, you receive personal and individual coaching. With 31 years of experience teaching skiing, I combine professional qualifications with extensive practical experience on the slopes.
As a state-certified ski instructor and ski guide, I help beginners, children, families and experienced skiers become more confident, improve their technique and enjoy skiing even more.
I love adventures in the mountains and enjoy sharing what I know. It’s especially rewarding to see a child make their first turn through play, or to see a small tip help a guest ski with greater ease and confidence.
If you’d like to explore more of the mountains after your ski lessons, you can enquire about a guided ski tour with me. As a state-certified ski guide, I choose a tour suited to your experience and the conditions.
Private lessons mean more time for you, direct feedback and ski tuition that follows your ability – not the pace of a large group.
With only 1–6 people, there is plenty of time for individual exercises, corrections and personal questions.
Pace, terrain and exercises are adapted to your current skiing ability and personal goals.
Mistakes can be identified and corrected immediately so you can improve your technique in a focused way.
Lessons start exactly at your level – from your first day on skis to focused technique training.
Learn together while still receiving individual coaching – especially practical for families and small private groups.
No large group and less waiting time means more active lesson time for you.
Choose the lesson duration that best suits your plans. You can find all further information in the full price list.
The meeting point for your private ski lesson is usually at the Mittelstation in See. This means we can start the lesson directly on the slopes without long transfers.
The See ski area offers terrain for different ability levels. We choose exercises and terrain to suit your skills – from beginners to experienced skiers.
We will confirm the exact meeting point and start time together when you book.
