"Sze’s lesson was quite good, really patient and knowledgeable. I appreciated how I could tell him what I wanted to work on, and he helped me improve my backhand. Honestly, I saw some progress, which was encouraging. I hope to keep playing pickleball in the future, though not right away, and I’d consider trying another lesson with Sze at some point.

She explained the fundamentals clearly, and I felt more confident after the lesson though I still have room to improve.
