These coaches teach at top ranked spots and have great lesson fulfillment & student reviews.
For over 30 years, tennis has been an integral part of my life, encompassing roles as a junior and adult player. Not only have I excelled in my personal tennis journey, but I've also passed on the love for the sport by teaching my own children, one of whom now thrives as a D1 player at the university level. Additionally, I've had the privilege of coaching young talents at various skill levels, from imparting the basics to nurturing competitive players. Tennis isn't just a game; it's a legacy I continue to build through teaching and mentoring the next generation.
"Victor is really helpful. Listened to my goals and put together some drills to directly help with those goals.
**Now just giving hitting lessons to adults** Fueled by a lifelong passion for tennis, I've dedicated the last 8 years to coaching players of all levels. My experience as an experienced player allows me to offer unique insights and strategies.

"Honestly, I’ve been pretty comfortable with these lessons with Victoria. She’s really attentive, though I do wish there was a bit more focus on specific progress points. Still, I’d say the kid really likes it, which matters quite a bit. That's about as much as you can ask for in a tennis lesson. If you’re looking for a coach who’s calm but engaged, Victoria’s worth trying out.
Greetings! I'm new to North Carolina, was just transferred by my company to Triad area. I was recently privileged to be coaching 13 students weekly in January 2026 just before my move to NC in late January. I'm a former Tournament Competition player who played at the Championship Tournament Level with 20 years of coaching, I enjoy helping players of all levels reach their full potential on the court. I foster a fun, yet disciplined environment where skills are honed and a love for the game is ignited. I purposely keep my hourly rate as low as possible, not for lack of experience but rather to allow young ones and all families to be able to afford an introduction to this wonderful game. I am a busy professional but like many other busy coaches, I volunteer for Programs at various schools and clubs to help underprivileged kids and was proudly volunteering my time for the Aceing Autism program in DFW and look forward to joining the local effort as well.
"It is a great session.
Tennis is more than just a game; it's a journey of skill, strategy, and self-discovery. As a former college player with over decade of competitive playing experience, I'm passionate about guiding players of all levels to reach their full potential. Let's work together to elevate your game in a fun and supportive environment.
Hi, I’m Ava Hrastar—a current professional tennis player and recent Division I college graduate(Auburn University) with about 15 years of experience on the court. Tennis has been a lifelong passion, and through years of training, competing, and growing as an athlete, I’ve developed not only my game but also a deep understanding of what it takes to succeed—both physically and mentally. I’m excited to share that passion and knowledge with others.
"Ava's lesson was quite effective. Her attentiveness stood out, and her instructions felt clear and confident, making me feel optimistic about getting back in the game. Still, I hope we can continue to improve my front, backslice, and serve as we go along. If you're after a coach who really pays attention to the details and keeps lessons engaging, Ava might be worth trying.
I’m a passionate and energetic tennis coach who loves making lessons fun, engaging, and tailored for kids ages 7 –12. Every session is different—filled with creative drills, games, and challenges that keep young players excited while helping them build solid fundamentals and confidence on the court. I’ve been coaching my daughter since she was 5 years old, guiding her through red, orange, and now green ball stages. She currently competes in USTA junior tournaments and has won tournaments and matches against older players. This hands-on experience has given me a deep understanding of how kids develop and stay motivated in tennis. In addition to coaching, I’m an active competitive player myself, participating in USTA tournaments and adult leagues. Last year, I was ranked #1 in Women’s 4.0 in the Southern States, an achievement that reflects my commitment to continuous improvement and love for the game. I’ve worked with kids of different ages and skill levels, and my goal is always to create a positive, supportive environment where every child learns, has fun, and develops a lifelong passion for tennis. I can coach you in my neighborhood (near Stonecrest) or come to you if you are in south Charlotte
"Great coach! Patient and skilled but also really fun.
I recently graduated from Wingate University, where I was a proud member of the Men’s Tennis Team. Our team achieved a remarkable ranking of #4 in the nation for Division II. At 23 years old, I bring passion and loyalty to everything I do. Originally from Sweden, I spent over 6 years coaching there before pursuing my education in the United States. Tennis is my lifelong passion, and coaching allows me to share that passion while helping others achieve their full potential on and off the court.
"I can finally serve! Tennis is tough but with right tennis instructor you can learn much easier!
Im a spanish trained tennis coach with over 15 years of experience on court as both a pro player and a coach. Over the years, I have helped more than 1,000 players improve across different levels and stages of development, from building stronger fundamentals to sharpening match performance and confidence under pressure. My coaching is rooted in the same Spanish tennis culture and structure that shaped many top players like Verdasco, Ferrer, Ferrero, Feliciano Lopez, etc.
"My first session with Carlos was great! He was patient, took time to access my playing level, and was able to identify areas of improvement and a plan to improve. I’m glad to have him as a coach and look forward to more sessions with him
As a tennis coach, I'm dedicated to helping players of all levels improve their game. I specialize in technique refinement and strategic play. My passion for tennis fuels my commitment to your success on the court.
I was born in North Carolina but moved back to Mexico when I was 2. I started playing tennis when I was 4, and by age 6, I was training with Guillermo Stevens, a former pro who was ranked 302 in the world. That’s where I started developing my game, played at a pretty competitive level, competed in regional tournaments throughout Mexico and the U.S., and eventually played in the Federación Mexicana de Tenis (FMT) 14-and-under division. At 16, I moved back to the U.S., still competing seriously. I later committed to play D1 for 1 year before I tore and dislocated my shoulder. The injury gave me a new perspective, and that’s when I started getting more into coaching and helping others grow in the sport.
"Amazing coach I love how he is very technical, reviews very small details takes the time to listen to you and your thoughts! I definitely recommend him!
Recently, I graduated from Kansas University where I played for their women's tennis team. I believe my experiences throughout junior and collegiate tennis can positively impact other students and help them achieve their goals.
"Amazing coach! Recommend working with her!
Fueling my passion for tennis for 25 years, I guide players to unlock their potential. My D1 athlete background enriches my coaching, blending technique with strategy for on-court success. Let's elevate your game!

Charlotte's climate supports outdoor tennis roughly 9 months a year, with comfortable spring, summer, and fall lesson windows and a handful of indoor options at private clubs for the colder January and February stretches. Most Charlotte tennis coaches teach on hard courts at public parks, university facilities, and YMCA complexes (Queens University Tennis Center, Freedom Park, Hornets Nest Park, Fort Mill YMCA), which keeps lesson costs accessible compared to club-only markets. The active coach roster includes a 30-year career player and longtime instructor, a Wingate University college player, an 8-year coaching pro, and a Spanish-trained tennis pro with 15+ years of competitive and coaching experience. That spread lets a Charlotte student match a coach to a goal: USTA league prep, adult fundamentals, junior development, or college-level technical work.
