Hi Mina,
First take astep back form the table. This will give you more time to play the ball. If he then starts to serve alot more balls short then you can move closer again.
Whenever a player serves long to you, you should try to make an attacking stroke. Start by using a simple topspin stroke. Attacking does not mean it has to be very fast, but just put some topspin on the ball. This will help to keep the ball down as well.
