USP: Where did you go to college?
Carlos Dodero: I have actually been to three different universities. My first stop was Eastern Kentucky University. After that I went to the West Virginia Wesleyan College. I went to both with a tennis scholarship. Now I am finishing my studies at West Virginia University. However, I am not a tennis student there because they do not have men’s tennis team.

USP: How long have you been at USP and what has been your proudest experience since working with us?
Carlos Dodero: I have been with USP for 6 months, where I have learned a lot and met a team of amazing people. My proudest experience without a doubt was the 2021 Winter Showcase in Naples. The atmosphere that we created there was very special. 

USP: Is there any student or client that you’ve worked with that has had a lasting impression on you?
Carlos Dodero: To be honest I really connect with all my clients. Since I am still in college, I feel that it makes it easier for my clients to relate to me and to feel comfortable with me. All the clients I have had have impressed me.

USP: What is your most important advice for a student and for the parents?
Carlos Dodero: My advice for students and parents that are going through this process is to be patient. I also suggest that if possible, don’t just look for a full scholarship, look for the best place where the student can perform and grow.
