About your tennis coach
As a former D1-D2 athlete with 9 years of experience and coaching other teammates, I am passionate about the game of tennis and helping players of all levels reach their full potential on the court. I combine proven techniques with personalized strategies to cultivate a love for the game and achieve lasting results. Starting out as number 2 singles & doubles in high school, playing d3 in college starting as number 13; I took upon myself to get better training day in and day out by myself researching the game as well as crafting my skill. Within my sophomore year of college I moved up to D2 becoming the men’s/women’s captain while playing number 2 doubles and singles. My Junior-senior year of college I continued to hone my skills, leveling up to number 1 singles & doubles plus captain for Frostburg State University playing D1-D2 division Universities. I’m someone who has been in the position of being hungry striving to do better, which I would love to do the same for others! Happy to teach the fundamentals, help sharpen players tennis game as well as match play scenarios.

Coach Geo not only knows his stuff but he is also patient and great at teaching the prerequisite skills in a way that is easy to understand. He is really good at what he does.

I’ve had a pretty good experience with Geoffrey. He listens carefully to what I want to achieve and comes prepared with a structured lesson program, which I really appreciate. The lesson was well-organized and focused, making the whole process seem straightforward. Honestly, I feel more confident about my skills after each lesson, though I still see room for improvement. Still, it's encouraging to work with someone who pays attention to details and tailors the lesson to your goals. If you're looking for a coach who’s organized and genuinely interested in your progress, I’d say give Geoffrey a shot.

Geoffrey is more than a friend to me, he is like family. From my Sophomore year I watch him progress from being no. 13 on the Frostburg State University Men’s Tennis Team to no.1. I remember he would ask me for tips, certain points and tricks however, now he was the one teaching me and the rest of the team baseline/net play techniques and more.

I’ve known Geoff (Geoffrey) since I started my freshmen year of college at Frostburg State University and he took me under his wing. He showed me all his tips and tricks as well as suggestions to improve my game! Helping me go from number 4 singles to number 2 singles for the men’s team. Such a great and patient guy to be around!
