Jessica g.Verified ✓
Lessons taken: 5•Verified ✓
I knew absolutely nothing about tennis when I started. What I really appreciated about Irfan was his patience. He never rushed me or made me feel overwhelmed, which was a huge relief. Instead, he took the time to explain everything in a way that made sense, breaking down each technique into easy-to-follow steps. He effortlessly communicated the key points I needed to focus on to improve my ball-hitting technique. Whether it was adjusting my grip, perfecting my footwork, or understanding the timing of my swings. Whether you're a beginner like myself or a seasoned player looking to refine your game, I highly recommend Irfan for his exceptional coaching abilities!

I think Irfan's lesson was quite insightful, especially since he pointed out some specific areas where I could focus, like grip and stance adjustment which I hadn't really paid much attention to before. Though I still have work to do, I feel more aware of how small tweaks can make a difference. Honestly, it's encouraging to see progress gradually, and I plan to keep working on those details with him. If you're after someone who offers practical tips without overwhelming, I’d suggest giving Irfan a try.

Honestly, I wasn't sure what to expect, but Jonathan's lesson was pretty good overall. He’s a cool guy, and I appreciated how he kept things relaxed while I worked on my backhands, though I still need to get more consistent with them. It’s encouraging to have that kind of steady support. Still, I think a bit more focus on technique might help me improve faster. If you want a trainer who’s easy to talk to and can help you with your game, you might find this worth trying out.

I’d say, honestly, Jonathan's lesson was pretty good. The highlight really was the clear focus on the fundamentals without feeling too rushed, which I appreciated. Though I’m still working on timing, I left with some useful pointers I hadn’t thought of before. Still, it’s encouraging to see how measured and attentive Jonathan is during the lesson, definitely a good choice if you're looking to improve with a laid-back but effective approach.

Jonathan's lesson was quite helpful, especially the way he focused on specific tennis techniques that really resonated with me. Though I still need a bit more practice, I’m confident I’m making steady progress and will benefit from continued lessons. Still, I appreciate Jonathan's calm guidance and natural approach. If you're looking for a measured and constructive learning experience, you might want to consider giving him a try.

I had a fantastic first lesson with Irfan! I’ve never played tennis before, so I was a bit nervous, but he was extremely patient and kind. He taught me important beginner techniques - everything from how to hold my racquet to stance, footwork and front and back hand. I’m feeling much more confident and I’m excited to come back for round 2!
