Hello! My name is Kate Noelcke, and I am a rising senior at the University of Dayton. I am offering to teach tennis lessons in the Dayton and Oakwood area starting at the end of August when I will be back on campus. I played four years of high school tennis, and have been a four-year member of the competitive travel team with the UD Club Tennis program. I also have three years of experience teaching tennis to children primarily ages 5-13 at the Cincinnati Tennis Foundation. I will be offering private lessons or group lessons for any interested junior or adult players at beginner or intermediate levels.

"Honestly, the lesson with Kate was quite good, especially since we covered some specific drills that really helped sharpen my strokes. Though I still need to get more consistent with my placement, I felt like I got some useful tips I can build on. Still, I think with more focus on footwork, my game could improve even more, so I plan to keep working with Kate.
