He gives well-rounded answers and tips to explain what could be better with my technique. He checked what I wanted to work on and focused on that for most of the lesson. He was patient and offered many different angles until I actually learned the skill I was stuck on previously. I also have a better understanding for my groundstrokes after just two lessons.

Eric G. | 5/5 Rating
Really liked how intuitively Tommy coached me. I haven’t taken lessons in a very long time but Tommy was able to very quickly determine my skill level and work through some drills that helped me work on my tennis. He was generous with his time and very friendly and helpful with feedback.

Tommy was really great at ramping us up and covered forehand, backhand and service in the first session.
