Coach E is an exceptional tennis coach! His deep knowledge of the game and excellent teaching skills have helped me improve significantly. He tailors his training programs to fit each player's needs, ensuring everyone sees real progress.
Coach E's positive and motivating approach builds confidence and a strong work ethic. He's also professional, reliable, and great at communicating with both players and their families.
Coach E's passion for tennis and dedication to his students make him an outstanding coach. Highly recommend!

I've had two lessons with Eugenio so far and I have really enjoyed them and Eugenio's teaching style. Eugenio obviously has a lot of experience teaching and was quickly able to ascertain my level of experience and my pace of learning. Looking forward to improving my tennis game and I have no doubt that Eugenio is going to be instrumental in my tennis development. Highly recommend!

I've had fifteen lessons thus far with Eugenio. He's a fantastic instructor! He's super fun, he has passion for the game, and with every lesson he both expects and puts in a solid effort. My game has improved drastically since I started my lessons with him. I should note that he's both extremely reliable and very punctual, qualities I value as a busy professional. At the same time, he has also been very accommodating with respect to my own schedule and travel. I plan on continuing my lessons with him well into the future. I would recommend him strongly to anyone! So if you're interested in tennis lessons, look no further!

I was a beginner in tennis and started with a 10-session package with the Coach. He was able to give specific feedback with quick results.
I saw a lot of improvement so I continued for another 10-session package. He is able to adjust lessons and personalize them depending on the student and the current progress.
With zero experience of playing tennis, now I can play!

I had my first lesson with Eugenio Huerta today. I had an excellent experience and think that his prices are very low for a high quality coach. He is clearly highly intelligent, articulate, knowledgeable, and completely bilingual in Spanish and English.
Eugenio took the time to find out what my goals were, guided me through stretching before we started, and was very patient with my playing like I had never seen a racket before.
As a result of today's favorable experience, I have set up a continuing series of lessons with him as I try to return to tennis after a 9 year hiatus (I'm a 63 y/o male) because of some nagging foot problems which have hopefully resolved now. I was once a 4.5 level player, not that you could tell it today, as I struggled to find the center of the strings on anything I hit.
I look forward to working with Eugenio to revive my tennis game!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My pricing is based on my years of experience, the quality of my sessions, my expertise, and the excellent results I deliver.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
When working with a new customer, I begin with an initial consultation to understand their goals, experience level, and any specific areas they want to improve. Next, I conduct a skills assessment to tailor a personalized training plan. Throughout our sessions, I focus on building a strong foundation, enhancing technique, and ensuring continuous progress. I provide regular feedback, adjust strategies as needed, and maintain open communication to ensure the best possible results. My goal is to help each customer reach their full potential in a supportive and motivating environment.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I started playing tennis at the age of 12 and earned a tennis scholarship for college. I have played in state and international professional tournaments, gaining extensive competitive experience. For over 20 years, I have been coaching tennis, offering both private 1-on-1 and semi-private lessons. My background combines formal education, competitive play, and two decades of coaching expertise.
