The lesson had a good focus on drill work, especially on the third ball and kitchen line battles, which I think is pretty helpful for sharpening specific skills. Though, I’m curious to see how well I can transfer these practices into actual game situations , still, Gustavo’s approach seems to keep things practical. There's a definite emphasis on improving through targeted drills, which is useful, and I’m hopeful I can build on this in future lessons by simulating real gameplay more. If you're into detailed, strategic practice, you might want to give Gustavo a try.

Honestly, this lesson helped me focus on strengthening the area we targeted, which was quite helpful. Though I still have room for continued progress, I feel more confident about my game now and appreciate Gustavo's measured approach to teaching. Still, I look forward to building on what we covered and hopefully improving even more in the future. If you're considering a lesson with Gustavo, it’s worth trying out to see that focused attention firsthand.
