"I started taking lessons with Csanad with almost no tennis experience. At first, I struggled just to make contact with the ball, but he was patient and always explained things in a way that made sense. After a few months, I was able to rally consistently and actually enjoy playing matches.

"I’ve worked with Alicia Reed and what sets her apart isn’t just that she’s a great player, it’s that she’s an exceptional teacher. Coaching is a completely different skill set than playing, and Alicia truly excels at it. She doesn’t just feed balls and say “good shot.” She actually sees what you’re doing, explains why it isn’t working, and shows you how to fix it. She pays attention to paddle position, footwork, timing, and mechanics, and she makes corrections in real time. She doesn’t stop for long speeches or overcomplicate things. She shows you what to do, has you do it immediately, and keeps you engaged the entire lesson. What I appreciate most is that if something isn’t clicking, she finds another way to teach it. She has a gift for breaking things down in a way that makes sense and helping you feel the difference right away. In a short amount of time, Alicia helped me go from a 2.8 to a 3.5 player. Her years of coaching experience really show. Being a great player and being a great coach are two different things, and Alicia is an excellent coach. If you’re looking for someone who can truly develop your game and help you improve, I highly recommend her.

Former collegiate player at Camden County College and professional athlete in Mexico, now dedicated to developing the next generation of players. I’ve coached with multiple programs and currently mentor with The Players Alliance, supported by Major League Baseball. I specialize in hitting, fielding, and the mental side of the game, creating a positive environment while tailoring each session to the athlete. My goal is to build confidence, sharpen skills, and inspire a lifelong love for baseball.

"Before I started working with Coach Will, I felt like I had talent but didn’t really know how to put everything together. I would get frustrated during games, lose confidence after bad at-bats, and overthink a lot on the field. Coach Will changed that for me. What stood out first was how much energy and confidence he brought every lesson. He doesn’t just teach baseball skills — he teaches you how to think like a player. Every workout had a purpose. He broke down hitting, fielding, throwing, and even the mental side in a way that actually made sense.

I’ve been playing soccer for over 30 years and officially coaching/training for the last 10. My main focus is on well rounded development with the idea that as we begin to fully develop as players the game starts to slow down and our quality of play increases. That’s when we can start to see the victories. You will only get from this game the efforts you’re willing to put into it.

"Coach Kevin has been really good helping me improve on my ball skills and focused on control my shot

Hello! I am a tutor currently based out of Wilmington, Delaware. I have received my Bachelors degree with a double major in Educational Studies and Theatre from Dickinson College, and am currently pursuing my Masters in Theatre with a concentration in Pedagogy/Performance at Virginia Commonwealth University. I have three years of writing tutor experience under my belt, and have recently completed a year substitute teaching at Salesianum School.

I picked up the guitar after hearing Blink-182 live and knew instantly it was what I wanted to do. Since then, I’ve written well over 100 songs and played my way through styles ranging from rock ’n’ roll and metal to pop, punk, and blues. What I love most about teaching is seeing that moment when everything clicks and the guitar becomes more than just practice, it becomes passion. My goal is to make learning feel easy, so every student leaves not just with skills, but with a love for the instrument.

"I grew up around music, my dad played but I felt weird asking him to teach… he’s way too strict. Found Mitch and he was very pleasing to work with. I can now play and I know all the chords and some scales. He gives a lot of homework and wants you to practice. He can be strict but he knows what he’s doing.

With 4 years of dedicated guitar play, my musical journey has been a delightful exploration of melody and rhythm. My passion extends to teaching, having immersed myself in the harmonious world of piano, guitar, and electric guitar within a vibrant church band context. I bring a touch of jazz to my musical palette. Let's connect and share the joy of music together!

"James is both gifted as a musician and as a teacher. Experienced, enthusiastic, and supportive, he guided me from knowing nothing to confidently playing in small groups.
