Erik - It's Kyril Popoff here...

I saw on your website that you were using the "guided discovery" method
of teaching beginners, and the article seems to back up your approach. It's
only been what, 9 years since I talked to you last, but I'm going to
volunteer part-time to work with the Rice Lake High School tennis team this
Summer/Fall, and want to get back into teaching a little bit anyway, so I
figured that I would check out what you've been doing lately, since you were
the first person that popped into my head when I was asked to help coach the
team up here.

So, even though I'm volunteering my time and it will be an uphill struggle,
I'm going to see what I can do with the kids this summer. The team was 0-13
last year; I don't even think they won any of their matches in singles or
doubles the whole year. I may even start a summer clinic or something like
that, who knows.

Maybe I can get advice from you, King of the Grassroots
