"Billy's lesson was quite good, especially how he zeroed in on my serve and rally consistency, which really helped me see where I can improve. Still, I think I need to put in more practice outside of lessons to fully get the hang of it. Though I left feeling more prepared for my next match, I’ll definitely keep working on those areas.
