More About Coach Jessica

I have been coaching/teaching the fundamentals and strategies of tennis for almost ten years. My mother runs a tennis club in Palos Heights, IL where I have been teaching group and private lessons to both children and adults of all ages. I also worked at the Chatham Beach and Tennis Club in Cape Cod, MA and at Longwood Cricket Club in Chestnut Hill, MA.

I work with ALL ages; I have experience working with orange ball, green dot, QuickStart, and high performance tennis programs with children from ages of 3 - 20. I also have experience teaching adult groups and private lessons with all levels.

I was a full-scholarship tennis player at Boston College until I graduated in 2015. I played in the number one singles/doubles position for majority of my time at BC. I led the team to several program firsts as team captain for two years and I was the first BC player to claim the Northeast Regional Championship title and earn the #1 ITA ranking in the NE Region.

I have been competing on the ITF/WTA Circuit for 2.5 years and have reached a career high of 485 in singles and 327 in doubles. I have traveled to 27 countries and 33 states in my career to compete in professional events--and I am still not ready to leave.

I truly enjoy teaching both the fundamental and complex techniques and strategies in tennis. I will begin a lesson by getting to know the player's level/experience and evaluating strokes/movement patterns in the first ten minutes. The following drills and point play are tailored specifically to the player's skill and goals.

Client Reviews

Jess was terrific -- she is lots of fun but definitely knows how to make someone work hard to improve. She was professional without being too formal, and even brought music along! she is an excellent teacher and we were very satisfied. sincerely, Sally G

Highly recommend!

I have always thought the ability to compete hard, perform at the highest level and also have a humble and respectful attitude are special talents. One of my favorites, the great Hall of Fame NHL ice hockey player Bobby Orr had these talents and Jess does too. Jess is a highly motivated and focused student athlete. I have been coaching at BC for 20 years and she is one of the hardest working student athletes we have had. She has great work ethic. She is very committed to her game. In addition to our daily 2 ½ hour team practices she gets lots of extra practice time. She can be stubborn at times because she demands perfection from herself. We play the best D1 teams in the country on a weekly basis and Jess is a top nationally contending player. She is always well prepared.
Jessica is an extremely talented and focused athlete. She was professional when she worked for me and when she played for me at BC. She attempted to create the perfect strokes for her students and challenged them to achieve their goals. Members who invested in lessons with Jessica were never disappointed.
