Van P.

My name is Van Peng Hung, and I am a local tennis coach who coaches out of a genuine passion for the sport. I grew up playing recreational tennis with my father and friends, which laid the foundation for my lifelong love of the game. I went on to play four years of varsity tennis, followed by training with college level tennis teams, further developing my competitive and technical skills.
I am currently an active USTA 5.0 level player and have been coaching for over five years, continuing to coach to this day. I take great pride in helping players improve while fostering a positive and enjoyable learning environment. Tennis is more than just a sport to me, I truly enjoy every aspect of it, from playing and coaching to watching and learning from the game

My teaching style begins with understanding each player’s goals. Whether a student wants to improve their serve, forehand, backhand, volley, or overall match play, I focus on identifying exactly what needs the most attention and creating a clear plan for improvement. I believe that learning happens through hitting and repetition. Lessons are structured to maximize time on the court, allowing players to develop rhythm, consistency, and confidence through active drills and liveball practice. This approach benefits both beginners who are learning fundamentals and experienced players who want to refine specific aspects of their game. Above all, I emphasize having fun and enjoying the process. Tennis should be challenging, rewarding, and enjoyable. By creating an engaging and supportive environment, I help players not only improve their skills but also build a lasting hobby and appreciation for the game.
