Mark Nordby has coached me for the past 10 years and has given
up countless hours of his time to help me improve. He is a very good
tactician at tournaments and great motivator at practices. He truly
cares about seeing his students succeed and will do the best he can to
help them reach their goals. -Mark

2) I have known Mark Nordby as a coach since
2000, and he has been my coach for several years now and has been a
huge influence on how I play and view the game. Coach Nordby has
been in my corner during some of the biggest wins in my career,
including a number of US National and Open Championship titles.
Most recently, Mark was my coach during the 2008 North American
Olympic Trials after helping me place in the top four at the US
Olympic Trials. In my opinion, Coach Nordby is undoubtedly one
of the best table tennis tacticians in America, having learned from
another great - US Men' Coach Danny Seemiller. Technically,
Coach Nordby has stayed knowledgeable with the evolving techniques and
styles of the game, and was with Mark Hazinski and me when we trained
in China and Sweden. Mark and I would both soon after qualify
for the 2004 US Olympic Team. Most importantly, Coach Nordby is
extremely dedicated to his students, both on a sport and personal
level, and I'm fortunate to count him as a good friend and mentor.

3) I've met dozens of coaches from all over
the world and Mark is easily one of the best tactical coaches around.
He takes his coaching roles very seriously. Not only is he
concerned with making the most of his coaching time with a player, he
tailors his coaching to that player's level, style and goals. I
would recommend him to any player that is serious about improving and
wants to understand the philosophy of match gameplay. -John
