"I just wanted to say a huge thank you to the coaches who have been helping me through my first 5 basketball lessons. In such a short time, I’ve seen real improvement in my passing, ball control, and overall confidence on the court. The way you broke down the basics—like chest, bounce, and overhead passes—made it easy to understand and apply. The drills, especially partner passing and “keep away,” were fun and helped me build good habits fast. You made learning feel encouraging and supportive, and that made all the difference. Thanks for being patient, positive, and clear in your teaching. Looking forward to the next sessions!

I have been playing basketball since the age of 10. My brother was on the high school team and I have trained with him growing up almost everyday. I played on my college intramural team and have taken lessons from professionals that played in college. I regularly play in basketball leagues that even have players over 6’8” tall. I am well versed in young children as I have taught young students English from three years up. (I have my own kids these ages) I am bilingual Mandarin and can explain concepts well in both languages. I am patient, kind, and enjoy seeing others achieve their goals. I look forward to teaching any students be well rounded individuals not just in sports, but in life.
