Tennis4U

Hi, my name is Doug. I've been playing tennis for over 30yrs and enjoy teaching the game. I was born and raised in the Chicagoland area. I played tennis for my high school team and a little in college. I still stay active so I can keep up with more spirited players. I can also help with demonstration or play the whole session if needed. I am PTR certified (https://ptrtennis.org/) which will supplement my coaching skills to provide an even better experience for students.

I realized I really enjoy teaching this sport after introducing my 7yr old daughter to the game. Sometimes it's a challenge to keep her engaged so I try to make it fun for her while having her learn. This is what incorporate into lessons I teach. As an option, I can bring her along if it will make the sessions more enjoyable for students around her age.
