About your tennis coach
Hello nice to meet you! My name is Sofia Portillo Herrera, I am a hard working, full time college student in the field microbiology and neuroscience. I have a passion for tennis and I love teaching others to share that passion with me. I have been playing tennis since I was 6 years old and I’m nearing 7 years of coaching experience. I look forward to many more years in the world of tennis!

Sofia’s approach is quite relaxed but attentive, and I liked how she encourages me without overdoing it, especially when I make mistakes. The lesson highlighted her friendly tone and the way she praised what I do well really boosted my confidence.

I had a lesson with Sofia where we enjoyed rallying and she gave helpful feedback at the same time, which was quite good. To improve, I should focus on making sure I follow through on my swing and keep my form correct, but overall I felt like I learned quite a lot. Still, I think with a bit more attention to those details, my game could really improve. If you're looking for lessons that combine practical play with guidance, you might want to try Sofia.

Youth players
Working with kidsI incorporate fun games and activities that the kids enjoy while still helping them improve their technique. I make sure to change up the “boring” drills often so that they stay motivated and focused.
Working with teenagersI make sure to create a strong connection with the players, not just as a coach but even as a friend. I also make sure to ask the players what they would like to work on during the lesson, I notice students often have something in mind that they want to work on the most.
