Meet Our Coaches

Quan (ATC Head Coach)

I am currently a fully certified coach from the TPA. I have been involved in coaching tennis in Canada for 3 years, as well as 2 years in Vietnam as an assistant teacher at the university level.

My tennis career started over 15 years ago in Vietnam with my father who is a professional tennis coach. Being able to learn tennis from my father since I was a child, I have a privilege to understand most of obstacles and challenges that people have to face when they are first introduced to the game.

My love for tennis and teaching can be seen every time I step on court or whenever I have a chance to discuss anything about tennis. I am passionate about the development of children or adult in the game of tennis and I am willing to help bring up the level of their games.
