As much in most of the countries of Europe there is a diploma or certificate allowing to teach the padel, as much in France the thing is not yet completely professional nor clear. This is not the point. In the clubs of padel French, public (association) or private, there are several types of teachers; let's define them.

The monitor of padel

The monitor of padel is that person, tennis teacher, who rides the wave padel, often more by public demand than real interest, and who teaches padel like he would give tennis lessons. Result: players who have fun on the pitch among themselves but who will not understand the point of letting the ball pass or learning to play high balls. Adults will have fun, but the basic technique for young people will be truncated for tennis.

The teacher of padel

It is the teacher who comes from tennis and who is really interested in padel. He regularly plays padel, participates in tournaments and even took part in training padel. He knows all the shots of padel and does not hesitate to do research to create new sessions for his students.

The GOOD teacher of padel

Whether it comes from tennis, squash, badminton, bowling or whatever, it doesn't matter. Whether he is French, Spanish, English or other, it does not matter as long as he speaks French. This person is passionate about padel and learning runs through his veins. Very good teacher with adults and children alike, he knows the technique of padel On the fingertips. He knows how to organize game patterns that players can then apply.

His plus: he does not try to erase the essence of the player. He develops his strengths, modifies and adapts his weaknesses, knows how to detect the little details that will make the game more effective. It highlights students by making them aware of their mistakes and especially understand that a shot is never the same. The factors involved are multiple: racket, grip, arm, body, supports, position of the opponents, power of the ball, weather ...

Fortunately, the world is made up of different people. Some people will be very satisfied with a padel and other dissatisfied with a GOOD teacher of padel. Know that there is every type of person you will feel comfortable with. Wait, you will find your happiness. And just because you are going to be around a GOOD teacher does not mean that their hour of class will be more expensive than an instructor.
