Teaching Style
I specialize in group lessons for all ages and skill levels. Additionally I offer private and semi-private lessons. Lessons are theme based, like footwork, stroke fundamentals and mental sharpness. Each lesson starts with a dynamic warm-up and short assessment, followed by drills and games. The conclusion of the lesson encompasses a cool-down, static stretching, review and take-home tennis activities. I customize each lesson because each student is unique and learns through a variety of methods; this where my masters in teaching really helps students learn the most in less time.
Hobbies
Basketball, golf, taking care of my dogs, reading and watching videos
