What is a Private Tennis Coach?
Private Tennis Coach Job Description
A private tennis coach is an expert capable of offering personalised lessons to clients of all levels and ages to help them improve their game.
They must tailor their instruction to the students' individual needs, technical knowledge and physical abilities, whilst ensuring that it takes place in absolute safety.
While some students may simply want to improve their skills, others may wish to participate in high level competitions. The tennis coach must therefore be an adept player in their own right, with a flare for pedagogical activities and exercises, as well as patience and care for their students' progress.
