About Sterling
Hello my name is Sterling and I am a local Gilbert tennis coach with over 17 years of playing experience and over 16 years of teaching experience! I’m an extremely experienced tennis coach with a strong background in both playing and instructing the sport. I specialize in developing players of all ages and all skill levels, from beginners to advanced (USTA 4.0) competitors. My approach focuses on technical refinement, strategic gameplay and mental conditioning, ensuring that each player reaches their full potential on the court. In addition to coaching, I have a deep academic background as a postdoctoral scholar at Arizona State University, where my research focuses on microbiomes and also human health. My experience as an educator translates into my tennis coaching philosophy-emphasizing clear communication, tailored instruction and continuous improvement. I previously coached the Penn State University Tennis Club, where I worked with juniors and also adults to develop their game. Whether coaching competitive players or recreational enthusiasts, I strive to create a supportive, high-energy training environment that fosters both skill development and a love for the sport out on the court!
I am offering fun private tennis lessons, semi-private tennis lessons, group tennis lessons and hitting only sessions for all ages (kids, teens, adults, seniors) and for all skill levels (beginner, intermediate, advanced). So whether you need to work on some specifics like your forehand, backhand, volley, serve, service return, overhead, drop shot, approach shot, footwork, singles strategy or doubles strategy-I would be more than happy to help you out with your tennis game!
I teach tennis lessons in the Gilbert area but I’ll travel up to 15 miles.
Please contact me through my FindTennisLessons.com coach page and then I will contact you back within 24 hours to introduce myself, answer any questions and if you are interested, we’ll set-up your first tennis lesson or hitting session at a time and place that is convenient for you. I look forward to hearing from you and I look forward to the opportunity to be your Gilbert tennis coach. See you on the court!
