Teaching Experience: 24 years
Teaching Style
I’m very good at being able to adapt to any style and level of player. I emphasize good technique and follow through. But being able to teach advance levels as well. Like the loop backswing, open stances, and the modern forehand. I like to start off with mini tennis then work on ground strokes from the baseline and progress to live ball. I work on the volley and serve as well so I can see all aspects of there game. Unless its a beginner then we start slow with just ground strokes.
Hobbies
I like other sports like basketball, hockey, baseball and Football. I’m very passionate about UofM sports. I also like the Detroit sports teams. I have a girl friend and 2 step boys that I spend most of my time with when I’m not working or fixing up our house and yard.
