Well.. lol the truth is practice makes perfect =)
try things like:
-hitting the ball of the side of a house, or wall..you can practice different swing techniques and get your speed up that way
-have someone throw the tennis ball randomly to practice your foot work and diving for the ball--make sure they do not throw it directly to you--that way you have to learn to dive for the ball.
-practice throwing the ball up and hitting it far, but aim down as hard as you can--comes in handy for serving..
not much more i can think of, those are things i do for tennis pratice for school.
hope it helps

Hey
One of the easiest ways to improve your technique is to utilize your non-dominant arm correctly. The non-dominant arm is a crucial, but little taught component of most amateur tennis player's strokes. All strokes can be improved with a little assistance from the "other" side. It is also a good way of improving technique without being so "technical." One example of the usefulness of the non-dominant arm is with a right-hander's forehand groundstroke.
1. By extending the left arm slightly across the body, the shoulders turn by themselves. Now you don't have to turn your shoulders consciously. The left arm does it for you.
2. The second benefit of extending the left arm is for better balance. In sports, opposite limbs will synchronize for balance.
3. Another use of extending the left arm is that it helps you find your contact point. This is similar to an overhead when an individual puts their arm up to track the ball.
4. A fourth use of the left arm is to catch the follow through. By catching the racquet handle over the opposite shoulder and by the left ear, the follow through is "given" to you.
5. Finally, you are in balance again. Although your hands are now together, your arms are opposite. You have now come full circle: starting balanced and ending balanced.
Hope this helps
