Welsh ParkTennis Venue in Rockville, MD

As a professional tennis player with an ITF ranking and a 9 UTR, I bring high-level competitive experience to every lesson. I was named Freshman of the Year at Benedict College and became a national champion in my home country. I’ve represented my country internationally and competed in France, Egypt, Kenya, Botswana, Nigeria, Ghana, and Togo. With years of experience working with players of different ages and skill levels, I’m passionate about helping students build confidence, improve their technique, and reach their goals on and off the court.

"Esperance is a great teacher. I brought my 9 year old son for lessons and she was fun, kind and a natural with kids too. She is very skilled too, as a former tennis champion in her country. Looking forward to more future lessons with Esperance! Highly recommended!

With 40 years of playing experience and 6 years coaching, I bring a wealth of expertise to the court.
