4.0 out of 5 stars Good book but to little clear pictures of the exercises., April 28, 1998

I think Reggie did a great job when it comes to creativity what the exercises are conserned. The lack of pictures in the book is a shame and those who are present don't say much. It's nice to have an example to show to your students.
Maybe something for the future.

5.0 out of 5 stars So Inovative!! I have used these techniques in my classroom!, May 4, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: Kids' Book of Tennis (Paperback)

Being a teacher of students with severe handicaps and a fan of tennis, I have found Mr. Vasquez's book to be revolutionary! His book includes all styles of learning modalities and it reaches out to all children. I have used and adapted Mr. Vasquez's games with my students. I am very excited to tell you that I have seen results with students that, in the past, did not respond to traditional methods of sensory stimulation! Through the use of this text, I have been able to reach those students!! Thank you Mr. Vasquez for a very good book. And please if you are a fellow educator, I HIGHLY recommend you take the time to read this book!!!!!
Sincerely,
Laura Mageary, Woodland Hills, California.

5.0 out of 5 stars An ingenious mix of tennis fundamentals with games for kids., March 3, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: Kids' Book of Tennis (Paperback)

Finally, a book that links an understanding of children's learning needs with a world-class knowledge of tennis fundamentals! As someone who has experienced the difficulties of working with children, I appreciate the inclusion of a multitude of "attention-grabbing" - "easy to understand" games. As a student of tennis, I marvel at Reggie's ability to cleverly incorporate sound tennis fundamentals in activities that are sure to please both teachers and students. A wonderful book!
