Testimonials

It is with great delight to give the tennis pro 
Mr. Ravi DeSouza a testimonial review.


"I came across this opportunity to develop my tennis skills through an ad on the internet.
I was a bit nervous and full of anxiety, as I had been through a five year delay due to a car accident."
Mr. Ravi promptly responded to my inquiry.


1.   So delighted, as responses are rare these days.
2.   Calmed my concerns with informative details and friendly chatter.


Upon meeting Mr. Ravi, my thoughts were confirmed. I had made an excellent choice and this was going to be a good tennis adventure.
His warm, patient, teaching techniques were above and beyond my expectations.
My love of the game has returned due to his direction.
I have had many previous pro's, not one checks all the boxes as he does.
Keep up the sensational instruction Mr. Ravi., rare to find such a dedicated pro who evaluates each individual's needs and proceeds accordingly, with such ease and visible results, due to his vast expertise.

So pleased that I went out of my comfort zone to pursue enrollment in session one.
Can't wait for two and three... and hopefully next year.
So ... I 'm the real winner here!!!


Bravo!

"I am lucky enough to join the Free 60+ Seniors Fitness tennis program by the Mohawk Tennis Club."  
Coach Ravi DeSouza is an amazing instructor.  He is very patient and creates a fun and good fitness program for us.  
We learn the rules of tennis, improve our skills in forehands, backhands, serves and volleys.​ - Denny Wong, September 8, 2018



"I joined the free tennis lessons at Mohawk Park for seniors 60+ to keep more active and fit." 
Our group was lucky to have our professional tennis coach Ravi, teach us the basic rules and skills of the game. Ravi was very patient, extremely helpful as he taught us how to play tennis. 
I highly recommend Ravi to anyone young or old as a tennis coach.
Ravi thank you so much for making my summer great as our group had lots of fun and laughs with you too. I have made some really nice new friends also. Hope to see you next summer. - Mary J.

What a fantastic and fun experience l have been challenged, encouraged and pushed to improve my tennis skills each week and enjoyed every moment.  Thanks Coach Ravi Much Appreciated.
