iNTRODUCTORY LESSON

In the beginning of the first lesson I do a quick evaluation of the individual's groundstrokes . I then work on each stroke for about 15 minutes. For intermediates and advanced players I would start with drills that require moving and hitting the ball from the start. With beginners, the first lesson is more stationary that involves a lot of repetitive hitting from the new swing and grip I will introduce to you.

"Great coach really helped my fundamentals"

"I have been taking tennis lessons from him for a year now and I have improved from a beginner to a 3.5 already! I could not have done it without him"

"He is not only a great player but is a great coach that easily detects the flaws of my game and is quick to correct them"

"For the price and quality you can't go wrong. I have received tennis lessons from tennis clubs for $80 hour and I can honestly say that I had learned more from him for $38 hour. Don't let the price fool you give him a try and you won't regret it."

About Me

Teaching Experience

I have worked at the Longfellow Club one of the premier tennis clubs in the region. Many top tennis players in the region train there. I have also worked at the Hammel Camp that features kids of all levels. I have recently started my own tennis business and currently train around 40 players privately.

Playing Experience

I was the number one player on my high school and college team. I trained with one of James Blake's hitting partners who currently has a world ranking on the ATP Tour. I am currently one of the top player's in the region with a 5.5 NTRP rating.

Teaching Style

I focus tremendously on the technical aspect of the game. I believe it is most important to get comfortable with the grips and swings before doing drills. As soon as my student's get comfortable with the shots I will slowly get into aiming the shots. I will first focus on getting good height over the net then slowly learning how to aim for the corners. After that I will teach my studen'ts how to efficiently put balls away. I make sure not to complicate the student's mind by working on one shot at a time.

NTRP Ratings

NTRP RATINGS ACCORDING TO USTA
General Characteristics of Various NTRP Playing Levels(Wheelchair players please see note below)1.5 You have limited experience and are working primarily on getting the ball in play.2.0 You lack court experience and your strokes need developing. You are familiar with the basic positions for singles and doubles play. 2.5 You are learning to judge where the ball is going, although your court coverage is limited. You can sustain a short rally of slow pace with other players of the same ability. 3.0 You are fairly consistent when hitting medium-paced shots, but are not comfortable with all strokes and lack execution when trying for directional control, depth, or power. Your most common doubles formation is one-up, one-back. 3.5 You have achieved improved stroke dependability with directional control on moderate shots, but need to develop depth and variety. You exhibit more aggressive net play, have improved court coverage and are developing teamwork in doubles. 4.0 You have dependable strokes, including directional control and depth on both forehand and backhand sides on moderate-paced shots. You can use lobs, overheads, approach shots and volleys with some success and occasionally force errors when serving. Rallies may be lost due to impatience. Teamwork in doubles is evident. 4.5 You have developed your use of power and spin and can handle pace. You have sound footwork, can control depth of shots, and attempt to vary game plan according to your opponents. You can hit first serves with power and accuracy and place the second serve. You tend to overhit on difficult shots. Aggressive net play is common in doubles. 5.0 You have good shot anticipation and frequently have an outstanding shot or attribute around which a game may be structured. You can regularly hit winners or force errors off of short balls and can put away volleys. You can successfully execute lobs, drop shots, half volleys, overhead smashes, and have good depth and spin on most second serves. 5.5 You have mastered power and/or consistency as a major weapon. You can vary strategies and styles of play in a competitive situation and hit dependable shots in a stress situation. 6.0 to 7.0You have had intensive training for national tournament competition at the junior and collegiate levels and have obtained a sectional and/or national ranking.7.0You are a world-class player.Players in Wheelchairs:Players in wheelchairs should use these general characteristics to determine their NTRP skill level. The only differences are as follows: Mobility: while players in wheelchairs may have skills that would normally provide them a certain rating, the mobility factor suggests that when competing against able-bodied players, they should participate at an NTRP skill level that provides for competitive rather than compatible play. Serving ability: Due to the nature of the players injury or disability, a powerful serve may not be possible. In this case, it may be more realistic to self-rate below 4.0 as service strength becomes key beyond this level.Many tournament players in wheelchairs have already received an NTRP rating. Wheelchair players should check with players whose skills match their own before determining their rating. The very best world-class players in wheelchairs have an NTRP rating in the low 4.5s.
