"First of all, Gerald contacted me immediately after I paid PYC for lessons. I took my first lesson a couple hours after our initial phone call. After some footwork warm-ups, Gerald turned on the tunes, made sure I stayed relaxed and he gave me something to focus on with each drill. He has a calm demeanor which helped me stay calm and focus on the adjustments he provided. A couple times he offered analogies that helped me visualize a technique adjustment and that was helpful. He also made sure I stayed well hydrated during our lesson. Gerald is attentive, knowledgeable and cares about the improvements you want to make to your tennis game."

"Gerald has been nothing but a wonderful tennis teacher to me. I love working with him, and every time I go to tennis I am excited to play a sport I’ve learned to love and improve my self as an athlete all thanks to him. Gerald has taught me so much about tennis, from forehands, backhands, and volleys, to simply the mindset I should have when approaching how to play, I’ve learned multitudes of tips and techniques from Gerald to make me a better tennis player. Gerald possesses traits that coaches I’ve had in the past did not carry. He is patient, and never gets mad when I make a mistake, but rather tells me what I can do to correct it. He’s also kind, and extremely knowledgeable. I think Gerald is a great coach, and anyone would be lucky to have him as their teacher."

"My daughter just started taking interest in tennis and her first lessons were with Gerald. If you are considering lessons for your child, young adult or if you just want to polish up your game to get better, Gerald is your guy! He was great with my daughter. He is patient and calm but at the same time keeps you on your toes and isn’t afraid to make you work!"

"Gerald is a fantastic teacher who makes our lessons fun. He is very patient with our teenager, while giving her the guidance she needs in a way she understands (not an easy task). He also teaches my husband and me sometimes together and sometimes separate, and we both have seen tremendous improvement. He is professional and flexible. I would highly recommend him for all levels, group and individual."

"I am getting so much out of my lessons with Gerald. I will sign up for a new set soon. He knows exactly what he's doing and analyzes your shot very well, but he makes it fun while you're getting better. You can't go wrong taking lessons from Gerald. Highly recommended."
