Be a part of the fastest growing Olympic sport in the world!

Coach Edward Chang

I love table tennis, and have been playing table tennis for 40 plus years, coaching since 2003. I am USATT certified state coach and a co-founder of Georgia Tiger Table Tennis School in 2007.

I learned coaching skills from US National Coach Xin, former South Korean Junior National Team Coach Kim, and head coach Zeng at Shi Cha Hai Sports Academy, who is one of the top ten table tennis coaches in China. By applying learned table tennis knowledge and skills at Metro Atlanta Table Tennis Clubs, ACCA, students’ houses, I coach all ages from 7 to 64, USATT rankings from novice to 2200 level. If you happen to ask a few top junior players at Lucky Shoals park gym, where Atlanta Georgia Table Tennis Association Club resides, “whom did you start learning table tennis from?” the answers mostly likely are “from Coach Chang.”  Many parents and kids told me I am really good at teaching beginners. Over the years my students have extremely low drop-out rate, they usually stay with me for years.

I am very patient, and respectful to my students since each player is unique, I posses good communication skills. I can teach skills step by step both in plain English and Chinese.  Players not only just learn techniques, but also learn under what circumstances to apply the techniques wisely. In short, my training approaches emphasize both technical and mental aspects.   

Affordable, convenient, patient and easy going personality] really set me off from other coaches since I can delivery lessons to your house or other locations.

I believe table tennis lessons should be enjoyable and fun, whilst learning new skills. Coach and player should show mutual respects. Truly I want those taking lessons to love the sport, just like me. All the players should enjoy the full benefits of table tennis: great workout for your body and mind, improving mind clarity and concentration, reaction speed, balance and coordination. Oh, don’t forget to make friends at club. Lucky Shoals park gym is a great place to learn table tennis skills, to play for fun, to socialize with others, and get sweat.

I can only take a few more students, if you are interested in lessons, please get in touch and I am sure we will be able to put something together for individual or group lessons. Don’t just take my word for it, ask reference by email.

听起来Edward Chang是 好教练, 很想让我孩子向你学打乒乓球. 怎样和你联系?

It is a pure commercial. The title is completely irrelevant.

请问常教练，你教初学者比杨教练和朱教练都教得好吗？给大家看看你学生的教学视频。具我所知在杨教练还没有来亚特兰大的时候，这里没有专业教练。你所说的Top Junior player 杨教练一来就全部走了，大多数孩子只有在你这里练了几个月，刚开始和杨教练练的时候都不怎么会打，杨教练和朱教练还要化很长时间改他们的动作，你怎么可以说这些孩子是你启蒙的呢？你说你可以教从不会打的到2200分， 请问你自己多少分？2200分水平的你打得赢吗？如果打不赢还怎么教？请不要在这里吹大牛。

Coach Chang,

Are you going to response to Yang's TT school's questions? I think you should be able to deal with it.

王皓和马琳是同一位教练吴敬平，你听说过世界冠军吴敬平吗？在当王皓的教练之前，吴敬平从来没在国家队打过。
这里说的仅仅是一个事实，青出于蓝而胜于蓝。
不知道这是不是杨教练的提问。杨教练应当学会大度些，小孩学球的同时也在学做人。

3楼4楼都不太友善。咱们别像两所舞蹈学校似的整天打个没完。都是教学生，普及乒乓，为社区培养人才。杨教练水平高没争议。但是常杰先生是最早在亚特兰大教授乒乓的老师。对亚城的乒乓贡献功不可没。亚城这么大容得下多个乒乓老师和多个俱乐部。

希望大家和平竞争。学生多了，乒乓才有气候。有本事共同奋斗，把那两个舞蹈学校的小姑娘都改成打乒乓，让他们没法打架，这才是正道！

旁观者清。

呵呵，我是5楼的98。今天还有相同IP尾数，而且观点一样。
我也是旁观者，自己打球，但从来没请教练教过，只是在打球时听了很多有关教练的故事。

我是3楼。 常教练做广告招学生没有问题，希望宣传的时候不要夸大其词。我孩子在杨教练那里学球，看到的听到的都是事实，再说了两个舞蹈学校的老师全是专业水平的，而且水平相当，才有竞争这一说法。 杨教练和常杰之间一个是世界冠军，美国队教练，另一个是业余乒乓球选手，更本不存在竞争。再说杨教练和常杰关系不错，这一段我老看见常杰和几个朋友在杨教练那里打球。

杨教练那年打的世界冠军？你说别人吹牛，你也别在这里吹了，好吗。
常教练从来没怕杨教练把人挖走，他的确是业余教练，持有State Level教练执照，并有正常工作。
倒是杨教练总怕别人挖他的徒弟。让你小孩在杨教练那里学球，然后到别的地方偷学一下，看看杨教练怎样对待你的小孩。
