About Me
Hi, and thanks for considering me for your tennis coach. I love teaching all levels and all ages. I have worked professionally as an instructor since 1995 Before that I played at Baylor University and as a junior player in Houston, Texas.
Thanks!
Teaching Style
I use video analysis to show you what you are doing now with strokes, movement, points, etc. From there I like to prioritize what the student can or cannot do and start working on fixing things. However, I do just drill and go out and hit balls as well. I'm rated 5.0 and love to play for fun too.

Jeff is really great with my 9 yr old daughter! He is engaging, fun and makes the lessons exciting and entertaining. He adds some science and physics while explaining how the ball flies, lands, etc. He's also really encouraging and has enhanced my daughter's self-confidence on the tennis court. I'd recommend him to anyone - I think he'd be just as fabulous with adults as he is with a 9 yr old. Thanks for a wonderful first tennis lesson experience!
Jeff is very explicit about demonstrating and helping to learn the correct stroke. He is patient and easy to talk to. I am learning a lot!
Jeff is great to work with! Highly recommended!
Looking for an experienced coach to work with my teenage daughter, I found Jeff on this site. We both feel lucky. She has had a few sessions, and after every one she comes back feeling that she learned a lot. New skills from a good teacher has increased her enthusiasm for tennis.
Highly recommended!
Jeff is an amazing tennis instructor! He teaches our two 6-year olds and they have improved dramatically in just a few lessons. He is very creative with the activities they do to keep them interested and having fun. He is very personable and easy going and our kids love him. I would definitely recommend Jeff to anyone looking to improve their tennis game! We will continue to use his services for our kids and for ourselves as well.
Jeff has a gift for teaching children tennis, making it so much fun that the children don't even realize they're developing high level tennis skills, and becoming all-around athletes too! Jeff has taught my children for many years now. Anyone looking for tennis instruction for any age and any ability should call Jeff first!
Jeff called the same day I submitted my interest and arranged to meet that same day to give my 10 and 13 year old lessons. I was amazed how quickly he was able to discern two very different strengths and how he was still able to coach to both of their needs without missing a beat. Both kids gave him 5 starts afterwards too. Thanks Jeff!
He worked well with my schedule and was always prepared for our lessons. I enjoyed the drills and learned a ton.
My wife and I were beginners when we started taking lessons from Jeff. He was patient and very skilled at teaching us the fundamentals. I look forward to taking more advanced lessons from him when our skills progress. He is a not only a professional player, but also a professional teacher. We both highly recommend him for teaching all levels of game.
