    Ed was quite helpful, especially with my net game, emphasizing paddle control and passing on helpful tips like holding my ground and hitting down on lobs. Still, more practice on dinking and unattackable serves would be great, though I left feeling more confident. If you're interested in sharpening specific skills, Ed's a solid choice to try out.

    Ed is so calm and kind. I was very comfortable with him and he explained things in a way I was able to experience improvement consistently

    Ed’s patience really stood out during the lesson, and I appreciated how that helped me stay focused. Hopefully, we can schedule the next lesson soon to keep improving my skills.

    Ed delivered a sharp lesson, spotlighting positioning and strategy, and I left thinking about how small adjustments can change the game's tempo. Nice steady progress, lesson worth revisiting.
