I highly recommend Dennis from TeachMe. Before working with Coach Dennis, my kitchen dinking skill and groundstrokes were poor and inconsistent. I struggled with understanding court strategy. Thanks Dennis’s guidances and specific drills, I've improved my forehand and backhand techniques especially in the kitchen zone. I feel much more confident in game situations. I really appreciated Dennis ‘s patient teaching style and ability to break down com… > From Chloe, 5 out of 5 > My first lesson with Dennis turned out pretty good. He’s friendly, really patient, and clearly knows what he's doing, focused on serving and playing, which I appreciated. I still have work to do on foot and arm positions and holding the racket, but I’m optimistic about building on that. Dennis and I also hit it off talking about the Acura Integra, which was a fun bonus. If you're aiming to sharpen specific skills, I’d say definitely give Dennis a try. > From Doug, 5 out of 5 > Wow, Dennis really helped me tap into my best playing ability again, and his teaching style is something I think more people should experience. Though I still have areas to develop, I feel confident about where I’m headed. Still, I’m hoping to keep building on what we’ve covered so far. His approach seems to set a solid foundation. If you're looking for a focused pickleball lesson that’s both practical and encouraging, I’d say give Dennis a try. > From Emmanuel, 5 out of 5 > Honestly, Dennis's lesson was quite helpful, especially in refining my backhand return on serve, which was a real boost. Still, I think I could improve my line versus cross court shots and hope to build on that next time. Though I do appreciate the balanced feedback, I’m looking forward to continuing my growth toward that 4.0+ level. If you're serious about improving your pickleball skills, trying a lesson with Dennis might be worth considering. > From Emmanuel, 5 out of 5 > I found Dennis's lesson to have lots of great instructions, which I appreciated quite a bit. Though I still have some work to do on my consistency, I think the detailed guidance really helps me focus on specific skills. It's still pretty helpful to see a clear path forward, and I’ll definitely keep practicing what I learned. If you're looking to refine particular aspects of your pickleball game, you might want to give him a try. > From Mitzy, 5 out of 5 > The lesson with Dennis was quite good, especially in making the use of time efficient. He managed to cover quite a bit without rushing, which I appreciated. Though I’d like to see a bit more consistency in the focus areas, I still felt the overall experience was quite positive. If you’re looking to fine-tune your pickleball skills with someone who stays attentive to your progress, Dennis might be worth trying out. > From Dennis, 5 out of 5 > Dennis really helped my return on serve, turning it from shaky to quite solid, and I saw improvement in both my front and back hands. Still, I’d like to keep fine tuning my fundamentals and grow more confident in myself and the game. If you're looking for a lesson that actually moves your game forward, Dennis is worth trying. > From Emmanuel, 5 out of 5 > Dennis took my serve from hitting out pretty consistently to deep and quite proficient, which was a real plus. Though I still have some steps to take towards hitting that 4.0 mark, I’m optimistic about the progress. Still, I look forward to working further with him to push my game even higher. > From Emmanuel, 5 out of 5 ## Book - [Book on TeachMe.To](https://staging.teachme.to/listings/pickleball/pickleball-with-dennis-turcotte): Pick a pack, a time, and a location, then pay. - [This coach in the agent API](https://staging-api.teachme.to/agent/v1/coaches/ea948315-fd57-4e92-b422-9475a99128bc): Read open times, get an exact quote, and book for a student. - [Agent instructions](https://staging-api.teachme.to/agent/v1/llms.txt): Read this before calling the API.
