About Me
Hi, I am Faisal. I'm a former world class junior tennis pro. Back in 1992-93, I was ranked in top 100 for ITF juniors. I have represented Pakistan in Davis Cup and many international tournaments. I played semi pro circuit in USA. I am great with strategy and sticking to the basics. My students have a tactical advantage as I know some tricky strategies while being raised on clay and grass courts. I am comfortable with any level and especially intermediate players who want to excel in high school, college or competitive leagues. I have my professional teaching diploma for U.S. National Tennis Academy in Dallas, TX (2003). Yes, I also have a BALL MACHINE!
Teaching Style
I'm an advocate of playing within your limits and sticking to the basics. Points will come using this style and being consistent! We all can't play like Nadal and Federer, what we can do is stick to the basics and do the best we can within our abilities! I advocate a strong baseline and defensive counterpunch play and I will teach you tactical approach shots for easy volley finishes.

Latest Reviews
Faisal is the BEST coach. Not only am I playing better but I feel so much more confident about myself. He makes me feel like I am actually good at tennis, and is helping me live up to that idea! He's also a really nice guy and funny, we have a good time. It's a mixture of a professional lesson and comedy routine. Overall I highly recommend him, he's a great coach and a good person. You won't go wrong with him! :)
