Perfect! I have played tennis for many years and have had lessons from a number of coaches, but Jon is one of the best coaches I have had.

I have had two lessons so far and will definitely be booking a third one.

Jon is an excellent coach who is patient and accommodating and has helped me improve my tennis skills!
Jon coached me for six months leading up to and during my matches at the Road to Wimbledon tournament. He was super encouraging and always kept me motivated, both in training and on match days. He helped me break down my opponents, focus on key areas, and most importantly, believe in myself at that level. Thanks to his coaching, I won matches in both singles and doubles. Honestly, if you're looking for a great tennis coach, I’d 100% recommend Jon!
I have had about 10 tennis lessons with Jon now and he is an excellent tennis coach. The lessons have been really enjoyable!! We have worked on my groundstrokes ie forehand and backhand keeping the ball deep with good length, with flat/drive shots, topspin and slice and he has given me great advice with my footwork and movement. We also looked at moving up to the next and volleying on the forehand and backhand side with correct technique!! The tennis lessons have been brilliant and my tennis has really improved!! would definitely recommend Jon for a tennis lssson. Haru
Just had an amazing tennis lesson with Jon looking at my forehand and backhand technique and tennis racket swing paths on my groundstrokesGreat tennis coach! Very professional and kind. Would highly recommend. Very flexible with locations as well.

His approach is gentle and encouraging - and also fun when we play against him for points! He’s technically excellent (as you’d expect!) and full of so many useful pointers and top tips! Highly recommend! Jen
Jon has been coaching me in tennis for more than 6 months. I am intermediate level and played very infrequently before. He has been super patient, helped me solidfy my technique so that I am playing more consistently, and most importantly, he makes it really fun. I look forward to my sessions with him every week. Sometimes a friend and I split sessions with him and he is very good about switching up exercises and games to make sure we're both getting enough playing time in. I would really recommend him to anyone looking for some consistency in their game.
I have known Jon for many years. He has a very friendly demeanor and is a very accomplished tennis player.
Last year Jon travelled to the South of England where we had a 3 hour session.
We covered all aspects of tennis, including ground shots, volleying, smashing and serving.
The session also covered aspects of improving consistency and fitness.

Would definitely recommend for both new, intermediate, and advanced tennis players.
Very friendly and punctual
As an older, recreational tennis enthusiast, I wanted a coach who can provide 'enjoyable' practice with precise feedback to improve my game of tennis. Jon is an excellent coach and has a gentle style of teaching. He helps me to achieve a clearly set goal for each lesson and to improve a particular area. He hits back all of my shots, even endeavouring to hit back the ones that are way out :-). He gives me appropriate feedback I need to address the issue during the lesson. His summative feedback, the end of the lesson feedback is critically constructive and encouraging, identifying what I need to work on until the next lesson. I highly recommend him.
Jon is friendly and warm and possesses an impressive depth of knowledge about the sport. He shows a genuine dedication to helping me improve. He takes the time to understand your specific goals and the areas you need assistance with, and tailors the sessions accordingly. He is positive and encouraging and makes the sessions a real joy. Overall, I cannot recommend him enough.
I didn't have a backhand shot before I met Jon. Jon taught me how I should hold the racquet and how the positioning of my feet was all important. Within a lesson or two with him, I was confidently powering over reasonable backhands!
Jon also demonstrated to me how to improve my serving. My second serve was nothing more than a dolly shot! And he tested me out with a few real games, which made the lessons really enjoyable.
Jon, who has himself played tennis at a senior level, is a great coach and excellent value for money!Jon is an excellent Tennis Coach, I have been having lessons for about 2 years and we work on various aspects to improve my game.
He is very patient and can work with all levels of players at any age. I would recommend himJon is a great coach, he takes time to explain things. The lessons are really tailored to what you feel like working or that day
Jon is a really great coach, very patient and encouraging.
He has been teaching me as an adult learner and I would feel very confident about him coaching my children tooI've been having tennis lessons with Jon for a couple of years now. He is always punctual, and focuses on what I want to get out of the lesson. He gives me recommendations about how I can improve my game and get more enjoyment out of tennis. We always finish with some powerful base line rallies so it helps fitness levels too. I would recommend Jon as a tennis coach to any level of tennis competence from beginner to advanced, and the courts at Marble Hill have just been resurfaced so a very reliable bounce!
