About Me
I am an active athlete firstly. I am also a recent college graduate. I graduated in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania with a undergraduate degree in Cinema Arts from Point Park University. I have played high school tennis but decided to dedicate my abilities towards teaching. I have trained at Pennsylvania Tennis Academy as a teenager.
Teaching Style
I emphasize the grip technique of the racquet. I will often rally with my students to keep their feet moving and having chance to swing as much as they can. I also teach towards the weak areas of the student before progressing to different strokes. I am able to identify their footwork and hand eye coordination during the lessons and act accordingly. Using different variations of feeds and ball types used.

Latest Reviews
I've been taking lessons with Kumar for about 4 months now. I think I've improved quite a bit, cash actually kind of rally now versus just hitting the ball all over the place when we started.
You get a lot of practice with Kumar, his lessons are a real workout and he'll keep you constantly moving and hitting the ball, which is what I needed as a beginner. Typically he'll walk you through some stroke or aspect of a stroke and then he'll serve balls to you and have you practice it for a little while before moving on to the next thing.
I've had other coaches who seemed to waste a lot of time, but Kumar is straight to the point and you will get a lot of time on the court actually hitting balls and honing your skills.
Kumar had been wonderful in tennis lessons. I am a complete beginner and he has been very patient and helpful and I feel that I am learning a lot from him. Great teacher!
Only a couple lessons so far but it's been everything I'm looking for. Lots of drilling and specific feedback on my stroke
I had 12 hours of lessons with Kumar, and my tennis techniques have greatly improved. Kumar is patient and tailors the sessions to my needs.
He was very kind, patient and supportive :)
