What do I do with him?

Me: Are you learning anything in tennis?
Rushil looks at me incredulously and says: Yes I am.
Me: But there are so many children in the class, do you ever get a turn?
Rushil: I do, I get to play a lot.
Me: Hmm.
Then Rushil confides: Sometimes my friends give up their turn for me.
Me: Why do you let them, they should get their turn too.
Rushil: I don't know, they think I'm their master or something.
Me: Rushil that's not right, you should let them play too.
Rushil: They want me to take their turn.

By now he's regrets he has said anything and has tuned out my nagging.

Had 4 lessons so far, slow progress but at least it's good exercise.
