" • Enjoyed the lesson and felt more comfortable with his forehand. • Liked the volley drills but found them challenging, especially reacting to fast shots. • Noticed improvement in his approach shots but wants to work more on consistency. • Appreciated the clear instructions and corrections, which helped him understand his mistakes. • He focus more on footwork and transition to the net that other coaches.

"Coach Dr. Dakar is very patient in teaching. He formulates lesson plans based on my weaknesses or what skills I need to improve. He records my lessons and encourages me to watch and write my observations what are my strengths and weaknesses. And those skills to improve are discussed and practiced the following lesson sessions. He’s very efficient!! Thank you Coach

"Coach Earnest is truly exceptional. From the very first session, he’s made tennis both engaging and genuinely fun for me. What sets him apart is his sharp focus on fundamentals—he doesn’t just let me hit balls for the sake of it. He carefully identifies bad habits, corrects my posture, and helps me build a solid tactical foundation. Every lesson feels purposeful and tailored to my improvement. Thanks to his guidance, I not only enjoy the game more, but I also see real progress in my technique and confidence on the court. I can honestly say I see myself becoming a much stronger, smarter player under his coaching.
