These include:

Not quite. My biggest achievement was winning in PE at school. Btw I just found out that I have a comment with around 500 likes. TH-cam been hiding the fact that I'm famous.
I pass the test. I did all 5 mistakes, yeah!
Hahahahaha
Gay
Same, mostly the right foot forward
Nothing like getting 100%!
Now you have 5 things to improve. Yeah!
The number one problem I have is not hitting the table
I have a problem of hitting my body into the table 😂😂
I’m 12 and on my bro’s iPad
@@justsomeguywatchingyoutube8104 haha so funny mate

@@fearsomeminion1376 why is a 12 yr old on the internet though smh. Guy has free will to say anything on the internet and you cant control them
I mean, you are fine man. I can hardly hit the ball
Thanks. I can now defeat Lucia in Wii sports.
Did you beat Lucia in Wii sports yet?
xFireStyle Yup.

As a pretty advanced player, I still commit the right-foot-forward mistake quite often, and it's not something every school teacher will tell you.
Nice tips.
A pretty advanced player? I bet you're absolutely kak!

@@MagicTammi ok
I always put my right foot forward
I've been playing since I was 12... but these tips are always a refresher. We all tend to get lazy as we get older unless we stay fit. So, getting back to these basics helps to ensure we don't drop our game as we age.
That's so true. I will say, I try not to let age stop me. I do plyometrics to increase leg and core strength when I am off of the table.
Very informative and doable tips. I am from Lahore, Punjab, Pakistan and during this COVID-19 lock down, I am coaching my nieces. I have played squash and was captain of my university team. Table tennis is by far the best game you can play at home under such unpresidented circumstances. Your online lessons have improved our game a lot. Thanks
I just played at my office for the first time yesterday. I made all 5 of those mistakes. Thanks for the tips Tom. #gameon
You are welcome. Hope you improve quickly and beat your work colleagues!
same situation here
VERY intense ping pong play at my place of work during lunch. I thought I was a good pp player in my youth but watching some of these guys at work is intimidating. However, I...am going to....right NOW.....buy a new paddle and dive in and PLAY. Thanks for igniting that fire I used to have.
You are welcome. Good luck with your colleagues. I'm sure you will do fine.
Excellent coaching for the beginner! I wish I had a coach like you when I got started, now I have so many bad habits using my muscle memory that is very hard to kick.
Don't worry. I'm still have a few bad habits I develped as a kid! I've managed to get rid of many but still some persist 20 years later!! It does take time, but keep going.
I've been playing for 3 years and still tend to stay too close to the table, specially after serving. The loose grip is huge as it helped me get rid of chronic shoulder pain on top of enhancing my feel for the ball as you mentioned. Awesome advice.
Thanks Alexis. I have been told by a couple of coaches that I have a 'distance problem', i.e. I play too close to the table sometimes. This is something I am working on too. For the serve, try to include a step back into the service motion. So you serve and just after you contact the ball, you step back straight away. This should get you into a better position.
Will do
Experience teaches you not to make any of these mistakes. At least that´s how I learned. But instead of waiting for experience to kick in and correct your own mistakes, Tom breaks it down for you in 10 minutes, so you can become a much better player the next day, rather than next year. Thank you Tom!
Thanks for the lesson. We're in quarantine and I'm SO GLAD we have a ping pong table. I haven't played in many years, but sure do appreciate it now.
How's your quarantine!
@@jantolner7502 how’s ur quarantine!
Very useful video for beginners.
I also watched some videos like this when I was a beginner.
Great and useful tips! Thanks!
Great,vital & simple advice for the beginner.If you get the basics correct progression is much easier.
Thanks Tom for getting my basics right. It was simple and brilliant. :)
Thanks Tom. I'm going to follow your tips from now on while playing 11 Table Tennis on VR and then play at a real table whenever I have a chance 😀
Your are so good my friend. I have a friendly match in 2 hours thanks a lot!
Absolutely brilliant tutorial! Thank you for the amazing tips
Thank you very much...I learn new things from you sir.. ☺
4:11 when there's a fly that's been bothering for 4 min .
I add a mistake for beginners, hitting the ball only by their arm without turning waist, the power of hitting ball is from legs.
Well it depends what shot you are playing. Some shots (e.g. FH topspin) need a good twist and transfer of weight / power from the legs. For other shots, like blocking or quick counter-hitting close to the table, you don't need really need to twist. You can play these with mainly forearm and wrist.
Thank you so much for this coaching!!
Thanks Tom, The mistakes I make are so nicely explained.
Thank you for the advice :)
Thank You Tom for the Valuable Information
I did all 5 mistakes. Thank you very much mr. Tom

I have all the mistakes which he have shown so thanks for giving techniques. i will improve and i haven't seen the person who coach better than him.💓🙂
Excellent coaching 👍
After watching the Panam sports I really want to try this sport! Thanks!
Excellent video. Not enough of this kind of BASIC coaching on TH-cam for novice players like me. Most other videos assume so much knowledge and grasp of the game.
Thank you. I am planning some more videos aimed at beginners for 2019.
Thanks Tom.
Excellent advice. God bless u.

Thanks this help me alot
Starting to play table tennis at office about 2 weeks ago and this advice really helps
Glad to see others who started playing at the office. That's where I began as well!
Thank you Tom.
Thanks, one good knowledge.
Thank you coach
Wow, I never realized how much I reach! I’m a very new player and have been playing for maybe a month and found some of your advice pretty helpful, especially the reaching part!
The reaching part is a big deal! The stroke should only be initiated once you have moved your feet into position. Anticipate > move feet to ball > stroke. Most people do the following: get anxious > lean/reach for the ball > get off balance > make a weak shot.
I did all of those mistakes. I'll try to fix them next time. Thanks.
You can do it!
Thanks you really helped a lot
Thanks man so much it helped me!!!
Thanks for this video sir. 🤠
Thank you coach, very nice video 👏

If you practice regularly (and in the right way), you can learn a new stroke and play with good consistency in 4-8 weeks.
