"Sze’s lesson was quite good, really patient and knowledgeable. I appreciated how I could tell him what I wanted to work on, and he helped me improve my backhand. Honestly, I saw some progress, which was encouraging. I hope to keep playing pickleball in the future, though not right away, and I’d consider trying another lesson with Sze at some point.
I got into pickleball after a few friends dragged me along to play. Now I’m hooked and absolutely love playing. I have taught many friends and newcomers how to play and excited to teach you.
"Brendan's lesson was quite helpful, especially in refining my dink shot technique, which I’d been struggling with. He explained how foot positioning can really make a difference, though I still have some work to do. Still, I’m optimistic about applying the tips he shared and hoping to improve further soon. If you’re looking to fine-tune specific skills, it’s worth giving Brendan a try.
