Level: Intermediate•Lessons taken: 17•Verified ✓
I'm pretty pleased with how the lesson went, especially focusing on the forehand and backhand slice, which are starting to feel more natural. Though I still need to practice those slices more, Marcellus's guidance was quite helpful in clarifying some of the specific mechanics involved. I think with a bit more work on my part, I'll get the consistency I’m aiming for. Still, the lesson definitely gave me a clearer understanding of the techniques, and it feels like I’m on the right track. Hope to keep building on this progress with Marcellus.

Oh, the lesson with Marcellus was quite solid, really kept me moving with those rallies, and I managed to hit some back-and-forth shots that felt pretty good. The highlight was definitely staying engaged and working on consistency. It’s nice to have a coach who challenges and pushes me, and I feel like there's room to build on this foundation. If you're into steady improvement and keeping your footwork sharp, you might find Marcellus's coaching worth trying.

The lesson really highlighted the valuable techniques, which I found quite helpful, though I still think I need to learn more methods to really boost my game. Marcellus's approach is quite practical and down-to-earth, making me feel more confident about my technique, but there’s definitely room for me to improve further. Still, I’d be open to trying another lesson with him, especially to refine what we covered.

The lesson was quite effective even with my knee injury. We adapted the drills to reduce pressure but still kept it very productive. I feel a lot more confident with my slice now and am hopeful about working on the drop shot next time. I think a bit more on forehand slice would help me improve further. If you're after a thoughtful coach who adjusts well to your needs, definitely consider trying Marcellus.

Honestly, Michael’s lesson was quite good. The teacher's encouraging approach and solid drills really helped keep me motivated, and there was a noticeable focus on practical exercises. Though I still see room for a bit more variation, I think I’ll benefit from more lessons to build consistency. If you're after a coach who’s supportive and provides thoughtful drills, it might be worth giving Michael a try.

Honestly, the lesson with Marcellus was quite good, especially since we focused on advanced techniques, which I found pretty helpful. Though I still need to work on commanding the zones better, I feel like I picked up some useful insights that I can build on. Still, I think continuing to learn more advanced techniques will really help me improve further, so I will continue learning from Marcellus.

Honestly, I think this lesson really highlighted the new techniques I’m learning, especially how to serve better, which was quite helpful.

The lesson with Marcellus was quite good overall, especially since the technical adjustment really stood out, making the experience worthwhile.

The lesson was quite helpful, especially focusing on the backhand, which is starting to feel a bit more natural now. Though, I think I’d benefit from additional work on the forehand and backhand slices to improve consistency. Marcellus explains things clearly but I’m hopeful for more repetition to really lock in the techniques. Still, the practical advice makes me look forward to the next lesson.

The lesson was quite useful, especially since Marcellus demonstrated the serve and drop shot techniques clearly. Though I’d like to see more emphasis on consistency in the future, I still found it quite helpful. It's encouraging to think that with practice, I’ll get better at those shots. If you're interested in developing specific skills, I’d suggest giving Marcellus a try.

The lesson was quite balanced, though I still want to see more focus on perfecting the serve. I think with a bit more work on that and the forehand slice, I’ll start feeling a lot more comfortable during matches. Still, it was helpful to get some practical pointers, and I’ll probably keep going with Marcellus to tighten up those areas.
