"Fernando helped me not only to become a better tennis player, but also a better human being.

I am extremely grateful for all the support that Fernando gave me during my preparation for college." Joao Pedro Avila - Florida Institute of Technology
"During my time under Fernando's supervision, I was able to truly learn the essential values tennis requires in order to achieve a high level. Fernando obviously helped me tremendously with technical, physical, and mental abilities. However, what stuck with me the most was his constant emphasis on the values that would make me a better person and consequently a better tennis player: work ethic, grit, resiliency, and patience. All of these values are controlled by us, regardless of what is happening on the court. He made sure to get in my head that excelling in those values was much more important than hitting a great forehand or backhand, and, that as long as I kept working on perfecting those values, everything else would fall into place. He was not wrong; after years of hard work, I was able to get a scholarship at Boise State University, one of the best NCAA Division I tennis programs in the country." Pedro Cavalcante - Boise State University

I was lucky enough to work with some of the most well known and respected names in tennis during my junior career and I am certain that Fernando is absolutely the same level coach as any of them and as the ones you see coaching pros on TV. Fernando's work ethic and attitude are infectious and I can't remember a single training session we had together that didn't grow my game.
