Matt Stevenson

I am originally from London, England, and grew up playing tennis since age 6 when my father began to teach me. I played competitive in high school and college and am currently a 5.0 level player. In my late teens I began helping to teach younger children, and decided to get certified with USPTR. I earned this certification at the highest of 3 levels (professional) and then got a job after college at a local indoor tennis club. For the next 3-4 years, I learned how to teach adults and advanced juniors in addition to younger children. I am currently taking PTR's Master of Tennis Program for working with advanced (performance) players. My teaching style focuses on improving basic technique, footwork, court coverage, and tactics/shot selection for more advanced players. I use a mix of drills and exercises which improve technique along with fun games and point play. I am really positive and encouraging on the court, while still providing good feedback to players about how to improve.
