"Honestly, I found the lesson quite helpful, Julio paid attention to my specific needs and offered practical advice. The lesson highlight that stood out was his focus on improving my serve consistency, which I feel more confident about now. Though I still have room to improve, I’m optimistic about continuing with his guidance. Still, it’s good to see a measured approach that isn’t rushed, and I think others might find it worth trying out Julio.
