Hi Mauricio,

Sounds like you need some lessons on the backhand.

Start by making sure you are quite straight on to the table with your feet.  Sometimes when people have this problem they are turned too far around towards their right side.

Then work on your backhand shots. Start with the backhand counterhit and progress through.

Good luck.
