How it works

Youth players

Working with kidsWhen teaching kids, I adapt by keeping lessons playful, engaging, and easy to follow. At this stage, it’s all about building a positive relationship with the sport. I use fun games, colorful targets, and simplified instructions to teach basic movements, hand-eye coordination, and early tennis techniques. I adjust the court size, use softer balls, and make the drills feel like activities rather than formal training. The focus is on developing balance, timing, and basic strokes without overwhelming them. Most importantly, I create a positive, encouraging environment that helps them build confidence and stay motivated to learn.

Working with teenagersWith teenagers, I adapt by shifting to a more structured and goal-oriented approach. At this stage, players often begin forming their playing identity, so I tailor lessons to their personality, goals, and skill level—whether they’re casual players or aiming for competition. I place more emphasis on technique, strategy, and mental focus, while still keeping it interactive and challenging. I also give teens more responsibility in their development—such as discussing their strengths, areas for improvement, and helping them set personal goals. For those playing competitively, I simulate match scenarios, build stamina, and train them to stay composed under pressure.
