Hi my name is Benjamin Ho and I’ve been passionate about Tennis for over 15 years. Growing up in San Francisco I’ve competed at all levels from going to nationals to winning all City single champions, and all City team championships for the past four years. I’ve been coaching players of all ages in skill levels from beginners learning the fundamentals to competitive juniors .Whether your goal is to learn the game, prepare for tournaments or simply have fun while improving, I’m committed to help!
"Ben is an excellent tennis coach. He comes up with thoughtful, effective drills that make each session both engaging and productive. What I especially appreciate is how specific his feedback is—he doesn’t just say that a shot was off; he explains why. He gives clear corrections on form, follow-through, spacing from the ball, and even which part of the racquet I am making contact with. Before working with Ben, I often did not understand why one shot would go in while another similar one would miss. With his coaching, I am starting to recognize what went right or wrong in each shot and make adjustments on my own. His attention to detail has made tennis feel much more understandable and has helped me improve with real intention. I would highly recommend Ben to anyone looking for a coach who combines great drills with precise, actionable instruction.
