About Me
Born and grew up in Philippines, I moved to Massachusetts back in 2012. I am a USPTA member with a professional 3 coach title.
A ballroom dancing Instructor by profession, I was introduced to tennis back in 2007. I easily picked up the sport because of my (built-in) footwork from dancing. I fell in love with tennis right away and started participating in tournaments in 2009.
I was seeded 58th in Singapore before I left in 2011.
An instructor by heart, I started teaching tennis in December 2009 and looking forward to sharing my love of tennis with you!
Teaching Style
I see to it that my student learns and improves after each lesson.
Understanding their needs for improvement, and seeing the potential that could improve more. I have my student warm up for at least 10 minutes, emphasize on lesson for the day, and give at least 10 minutes before time to apply the lesson he/she had that day.

Student Feedback
A perfect fit for us. Thanks, Ferdinand!
My daughter wanted to learn enough tennis to be able to play on her own
Ferdinand taught me and my kids as I bought a package from mytennislessons. I had great lessons and my game improved tremendously. Ferdinand is extremely patient as I needed a lot of coaching and my game needed improvement. He was also very flexible on scheduling the lessons. I really enjoyed my lessons with him and would highly recommend him to anyone.
This review is from my 15 year old daughter: Ferdinand was an absolutely amazing tennis instructor! As someone who had only a small amount of prior experience playing tennis (with little to no knowledge on good vs. bad form), I must say, I definitely improved enormously with his help. He patiently taught my sister and I the best ways to serve a tennis ball, teaching us the importance of both force/strength and control in a game. He was extremely nice and considerate (especially when we needed a water break) and always paid attention to when we made a mistake, careful to immediately correct us. I would definitely recommend Ferdinand to anyone interested in taking tennis lessons, especially if you are new to the game as I have absolutely no complaints!
Ferdinand was a great coach to my 8 year old son. He was very professional and patient. My son improved over the summer and really enjoys tennis.
Ferdinand is a great teacher: fun and serous all at the same time. Also, there is no better feeling then when he gives you a thumbs up because you got something right!
Ferdinand knows how to teach the game. Very well-rounded teaching style. During the past 12 lessons, improvement has shown greatly in all areas: backhand, forehand serve, and footwork. Very easy to schedule the lessons.
