I first met Bart a couple weeks ago. My whole family plays tennis, and one of my sons plays on the high school team. I was passing by the tennis courts at one of parks in Glenview, and saw Bart teaching a girl who looked like she was also in high school. I observed Bart's approach for a while, and I have to admit that I hadn't seen anything like this before: precision, professionalism and dedication. I signed up my son, Alex, for lessons with him. My son had gone through many pros in this area, and none of them could correct the things that Bart was able to do with a few of his unique exercises. He is like Mr. Miyagi in Karate Kid movie. His approach is innovative and effective. At first, my son was not used to such demanding practice. After a few sessions with Bart, though, he started to love it. Now he understands that, in order to achieve extraordinary results, he has to work hard and be patient. Now he wants to play tournaments and practice every day because he sees that he has improved. His self esteem has increased significantly because he knows that he can achieve challenging objectives. While I don't think that my son has the potential to play tennis professionally, his game has greatly improved. Furthermore, he has become much more confident and self-aware. read more
