Hi!
My name is Kris and I recently graduated from Northern Illinois University where I play both #1 Singes and Doubles. My lessons stand out because I am able to both coach and hit with my students at a high level. I also love to teach all levels, from beginners to advanced. Some of my recent accomplishments include:
-MAC Newcomer of the Year
-All MAC x3
Teaching tennis for me is always something I enjoy doing because of my love for the game. It makes teaching come second nature to me, while also being very fun at the same time!

Kris is amazing. I am a beginner player, that played growing up, but was years without any practice. Kris works a lot on the basic of the game, teaching you to have a good foundation, but he also makes the lesson a lot of fun. He work hard to identify any mistakes that you probably have, and even records you and study your movement outside the lesson. Finally, the price is very reasonable compared to other coaches in the area.
The first thing I do with new students is evaluate their playing ability and form. Making sure their technique and grips are correct is essential in progressing and improving their game!
Along with my playing career, I have been teaching lessons for about 6 years. This includes private lessons, group lessons at my local club, and running my tennis academy at the local park district.
My rate per hour is $40.
I got started in teaching because I really enjoy helping people who care to get better and want to improve their game.
I have worked with everyone from young kids to adults, including all types of skill level.
