Private Lessons & Coaches in White Settlement, TX

26 years of teaching experience, with a background in audio/music and video production. I play keyboard and piano with local bands and churches, and enjoy using this experience to help students learn to use lead sheets, chord voicings, and improvisation as well as traditional music reading, ear training, and theory. I'm also a piano instructor at Funkytown Music Academy. I also teach part-time at Artes de la Rosa at the Rose Marine theater for multimedia and keyboards. To add, I’ve re-activated my Speech Pathology license and certification to offer another approach to music and speech instruction.

"Richard is laid back and makes learning piano fun.

As a high-performance coach, I've had the privilege of coaching my daughter and her teammate to become All-American collegiate tennis players. My daughter has since transitioned to professional pickleball, winning a silver medal on the PPA tour and competing against top players like Anna Leigh Waters and Ben Johns. I continue to support her career by advising and drilling with her regularly. Now, I am a 4.5 pickleball player, author and podcaster.

Roland in 1973 as a 8th grader averaged 25 points a game. Roland is a former basketball player who had a standout high school career at Peoria High School, where he helped lead the team to a championship in 1977. Roland also made the All-Tournament team.He continued his basketball journey at Burlington Junior College in Iowa, where his team finished 8th in the NJCAA Nationals during the 1978-1979 season. Roland then played at Santa Clara University from 1979 to 1980, alongside NBA legend Kurt Rambis, before transferring to Western New Mexico University in Silver City for the 1984-1985 season. Roland is considered a PG/ SG with excellent ball handing skills which can teach your child the fundamentals to improve their overall skills.

"What stood out to me was how Roland focused on teaching the fundamentals and gave helpful advice on how I can support my son’s skill growth at home. The lesson was clear and encouraging, making it easy to follow along. If you want to build a solid basketball foundation, Roland’s lessons are definitely worth trying! 🏀

With 15 years on the court, my coaching philosophy blends proven techniques with tailored strategies to elevate your game. As an experienced player myself, I bring a deep understanding of tennis. I have coached students age from 6-71, some of the complete beginners have started playing leagues every week. I can help newbies master all needed skills to play matches, both singles and doubles. Each new student is first accessed based on their current skill level, and then provided with an individualized growth plan to become better players. Let's unlock your full potential together.

"I used to be a defensive tackle (DT) in a NCAA football team. When I first started working with coach Howard, I was 5'10" and 245lbs. I was really committed to tennis. Sometimes I'd drive an hour one way for lessons twice during the weekend. I soaked up everything coach Howard taught me, like a sponge, especially working on my serve and return. After about 9 months, coach suggested I start playing locally instead of driving that distance. I jumped right in and started playing in a 2.5 league. Within 15 months of learning from coach Howard, I was down to 200 pounds. I am 180 pounds now.

In just over two years, my journey in pickleball has been nothing short of exhilarating. Starting out as a pickleball instructor at CNP, I quickly transitioned to private coaching, guiding players of all levels from complete beginners to advanced 4.5 and even a few 5.0 athletes. Competing in numerous tournaments, I've recently achieved success with a 5.5 DUPR rating and medaling in 5.0 events and advancing through teams in pro qualifiers, setting my sights on reaching the main draw soon. This sport continues to fuel my passion for competition and coaching alike, pushing me to new heights with each game.
