Teaching Style
Session plan
1) Evaluate the level of the players.
2) Determine the comfort level with different strokes (forehand,backhand,volley,serve,slice)
3) Help the player to set goals and guide him or her to achieve them
4) Break down each ground stroke detail.
5) Teach players tips and help him or her recognize what they are doing incorrectly.
6) Show them tennis from a scientific point of view,meaning for example: why does the ball react differently to certain strokes and styles?
7) Develop problem that integrates improvement in tennis and physical fitness analysis.

Latest Reviews
My teen daughter has had just 2 lessons with Femi Thomas and she and I are very pleased thus far. He is serious about coaching and expects her to take the lessons seriously as well. He’s firm but respectful and kind in his coaching methods. We showed up 15 minutes early for our first lesson and he began immediately anyway. He was super helpful in recommending a tennis racket. We feel very grateful to have found Femi and hope to continue lessons with him for the next few years.
My grandson’s first tennis lesson with Coach Femi went better than we could have hoped for. Coach Femi taught in a very patient and easy to follow manner. He is an encouraging teacher and gives the student confidence while teaching. My grandson really enjoyed his hour and is anxious to practice what was taught today and learn even more as his lessons progress. .
Works well with you and takes the time to teach you step by step.
My son has made so much progress in such a short time working with Coach Femi. Coach Femi makes learning the skills of tennis in a fun way that makes it stick with my son. He also has an amazing positive personality that helps my son to not get discouraged or frustrated when he needs correction. We are so impressed with the lessons provided by Coach Femi!
