MIT's Physical Education program offers this introductory tennis course covering the fundamentals needed to play the game. Lessons focus on basic stroke technique, including the forehand, backhand, and serve, before moving into variations on those strokes. Drills and games let students practice technique on court, and the course closes with singles and doubles strategy, covering shot selection and court positioning in match play. Materials include course notes and a syllabus from MIT OpenCourseWare, released under a Creative Commons license, free to access. The course suits beginners who want a structured path from grip and stance through competitive play, rather than casual pointers, and is built for students taking tennis as part of MIT's physical education requirement.
