Mitchell Hewitt
Mitch is the education project manager for Tennis Australia. He regularly engages with over 25 tertiary institutions in Australia to provide professional learning to pre-service teachers, human movement and sports coaching students. These lectures and practical tutorials include applying the various teaching styles located on The Spectrum using tennis as a vehicle. Mitch’s doctoral studies employed The Spectrum of Teaching Styles as the theoretical framework to investigate the teaching styles of tennis coaches in Australia. He was fortunate enough to have Sara Ashworth as his associate supervisor for my thesis. Ever since, he has been involved in publishing academic papers and presenting practical workshops both in Australia and internationally at various physical education and sports coaching conferences.
