Hi George,
I think it is important to get eh major strokes correct first. That is the Forehand and Backhand counterhit, Forehand and Backhand Push and the Forehand and Backhand Topspin.
As you get closer to a tournament you can start to ficus more on the Serve and return of serve.
Thanks for your kind feedback about our Youtube channel.
