"Leon’s patience and knowledge really stood out during my daughter’s first pickleball lesson, and honestly, it was pretty good , she’s now eager to keep practicing and improving her skills. Though I’d like to see her build more confidence, I think focusing on fundamentals will definitely help her enjoy it even more.

My name is Zach Callender, I'm a NFHS Level 3 and USA Basketball Gold Certified Coach. Coaching basketball is something I am grateful to do. The game of basketball and sharing my knowledge with younger generations is what motivates me each day. I am dedicated to building strong, confident, and skilled basketball players who excel both on and off the court. My coaching style looks like this- I start with an in-depth assessment to gauge each player’s current skills and to identify specific goals. I then develop a customized training plan tailored to these insights, focused on enhancing performance, boosting confidence, and addressing any areas of needed improvement. My program goes beyond physical training, incorporating mental and strategic aspects of the game to develop well-rounded athletes. It fosters a supportive and motivating environment, encouraging players to push their limits and achieve their personal best. I believe in measurable progress. My self developed Accountability and Progress Tracking service uses detailed metrics to track each player’s development. By setting tangible goals and regularly assessing performance, I ensure that players stay motivated and see the results of their hard work.

"Coach Zachary showed a lot of experience, he engaged with my son in a friendly way and made him focused and interested!!

I teach tennis with a clear, structured approach that makes the game easier to understand. My lessons are active and hands-on, focusing on timing, spacing, and control through consistent repetition. I emphasize simple fundamentals and real ball hitting so players build confidence and improve in actual points—not just drills. I’ve worked with kids, teens, and adults in private lessons, helping players develop consistency and confidence step-by-step. Due to growing interests, availability times have been placed to protect reoccuring students in and out of TeachMe.to for August - December 2026. Currently not taking more students.
