Student Feedback

I was playing tennis for about 15 years when I found out my playing level was not improving any more, when I met coach Allen I ask him to watch me play. He told me first of all, you need to start your forehand from scratch, which was surprising. He gave me 6 lessons mainly concentrating on the forehand. After the lesson finished I was not fully satisfy because I couldn't implement and apply very well. However I wrote a note for the tips he gave me so while at home I could start to practice what he taught me. After a couple of weeks my forehand strokes improved a lot and become very strong and deep. I felt the difference been made by the coach. Now every time I hit strong and deep balls I say thank you Allen.

Allen is a great instructor. He was able to identify and breakdown the issues I was having with my stroke, then take me through drills where I could work on and improve those issues. He was also very encouraging, without going too easy on me. I would definitely recommend him to others wanting to improve their game.

I paid a package for 6 lessons and have completed 5 so far. Thanks to Allen I have been able to improve my technique, game and confidence significantly. I learned something new at every lesson and was able to utilize what I learned when playing at a local league. I initially learned tennis 6 years ago somewhere else but only played for 9 months. I had forgotten everything about it. Allen was able to restart with me and with only 5 lessons, I feel I'm playing better than 6 years ago and know that there's still more room for improvement. I'm confident that Allen will keep making me better. Thank you very much, Allen.
