Testimonials

“Patrick has been coaching me in table tennis periodically for two years. He has been very helpful to my game. He is an excellent player and coach. In addition, he is kind, patient and empathic. He would be particularly good with players that haven’t had much instruction because he is very encouraging. I highly recommend getting some coaching from him.”

"We have hired Patrick to teach some of our engineering team to improve their table tennis skills. He comes in once every two weeks for a group lesson. It has worked well - the developers enjoy it, it is team building, and it happens in our office. I'm happy recommending him to do the same at other companies - he is a good teacher, and he is very good at table tennis."
