Client Reviews

Coach Peter is a fantastic tennis instructor. He was patient, kind and always giving positive encouragement throughout my daughter's training session. He also did a phenomonal job correcting her. He made sure her hands and feet were in proper position to strike the ball and put her through a myriad of drills that will help her game and more importantly were a lot of fun. After the session was over, my daughter was very excited about tennis and our whole family can't wait until the next session with Coach Peter.

Coach Peter works very well with younger kids. He is very nice and very patient and he has various teaching techniques. I have two boys 6 and 9, they started playing tennis recently. Under Coach Peter's instruction every weekend during summer, they are both getting better especially the 9 year old. They continue to love playing tennis. During an 1 hour session, Coach Peter typically arrange several activities for them to do and they are always engaged. It is fun to watch them learning and have fun from the lessons. Coach Peter is always on time and is also flexible. Great communications as well.

Coach Peter did not waste ANY time in immediately correcting my one handed backhand. I got everything that I needed from this one session! His attention to detail was truly amazing; couple of helpful tips and my backhand which has not clicked for almost 12 years was suddenly much more natural! I will now go and practice, practice, practice. I highly recommend Coach Peter!

An amazing coach for all different skill levels!!! Great and easy to work with. Very patient too! And a master teacher.

Coach Peter is great. Works really well with children and they really liked him. Excellent coach.

Coach Peter was great with my daughter. He was fun and engaging while teaching proper form. He mixed it up to keep my 5 year old engaged at all times. I would most definitely work with him again if we choose to continue going private.

Hi Peter, My wife and I would like to thank you for our son's great progress on tennis. In particular, we like your methodical approach, and ability to identify each kids strength and weakness, and explore that for their benefits. Thanks again for what a remarkable 4 month of progress.
Peter has been an excellent teacher for both my kids, one who is 12 and another, 8. He provides great instruction that is suitable for different people to heighten their skill level and to make them a better player. Both my kids have improved greatly under Peter's instruction and I would highly recommend him to others.
We have been a "tennis" family for several generations and have met many different coaches, but we have been most impressed with Peter for his ability to work with children, motivate them and breakdown their tennis form and technique with great precision. Our children have made incredible progress and look forward to playing with Peter every time. by
Dear Peter, I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for everything that you have done for my daughter’s game. Her serve has improved dramatically and is much more accurate. After working with you this past spring and summer, she achieved her goal of making the high school varsity team at 14 years old! She is so much more confident in her game now that you have given her the skills she needed. We look forward to working with you over the winter. I will continue to recommend you to anyone who needs improvement in their game!!
Our kids were part of Peter's summer program for the last few years and this is one of the reasons why they want to come back to Poconos. Group lessons are fun, dynamic, fast pace, full of games and positive reinforcement. None of that "half a class i was waiting while others were playing" stuff which my kids unfortunately had with some other instructors before. Peter clearly has natural talent when it comes to teaching children.
