John Philip profile
About John

Hello, I'm John Philip, originally from The Caribbean. I hold a master's degree in accounting from college. For over 35 years, I've dedicated myself to teaching tennis professionally, earning certification as a USPTR Professional 1. My experience spans across all age groups, where I've fostered a passion for tennis and skill development in countless students.

What students say...

"The lesson with John was quite helpful, especially in working on my serve and return. Though I still need to work on consistency, I appreciated how he explained some of the court positioning, which made a noticeable difference. Still, I’m hoping the next lesson can focus a bit more on footwork to improve that aspect. If you're looking for someone who’s attentive and makes effort to clarify technique, you might find John worth trying.

Nice start today, the lesson kept things clear and attentive, and I appreciated the focus on explanations over endless drills. My daughter loved how you explained everything and did drills with her. There’s room for more practice, so I’m keen to build on this momentum next time. If you’re up for it, I’d be glad to continue.

Amazing coach, I walked away eager to keep refining my serve during this lesson and felt a real boost in confidence. Lesson momentum stayed steady, and the energy kept me focused, as I absorbed precise tips and quick adjustments. A brief nod to the highlight, and I’m curious to push my serve further next time.
