Since you are a beginner, don’t worry about purchasing a “good” racket yet. That can wait a couple months, Wal-mart ones should be good enough for any beginner. Wait until you get a feel of how you play first before choosing a more advanced racket to fit your play style.
As for lessons, you should be able to find group lessons with people around your age at a local tennis club. They are cheaper than private lessons, and let you interact regularly with other players around your skill level. Private lessons are more expensive, but you generally get better instruction with those. If you want, you can mix private lessons with group lessons. It’s really all up to you!

I think you should start with a few private lessons so that you can get some one on one time with a instructor to make sure that you get the fundamentals right (correct form etc.) After that you could go to clinics to play with other players. Also, get a better racket from a sporting goods store or tennis warehouse.com I had a walmart racket and I had a hard time playing with it but when I upgraded to a better racket my strokes improved a lot. (when looking for a racket look for one with an large head size that is head heavy) By the way I am 16 and i just started playing so you are not too old, believe me.

It’s never too late to start something that you love.
Stick with a cheap racket for now.
If anyone else tells you to go get a $100+ racket, DON’T LISTEN TO THEM.
You’re just starting to learn the basics. You won’t feel a difference between a $180 and $18 racket.
My advice is to get on the courts and practice as much as possible, preferably with someone who knows how to play so they can teach you.
Also, watch videos on youtube. It’ll help a lot.

You can learn on a cheap racket. Does your school offer tennis classes? I learn how to play in Summer school and it was fun. All my friends were there and we just played for the whole Summer.

I know plenty of people who learn how to play at 40, so don’t worry about it. 15 is a great age. =]
As for lessons, go with both, and here’s why; private lessons are very important. They allow you to work one on one with an instructor and they will prevent you from forming any bad habits that you may want to fix later on but won’t be able to. Group lessons are good because it’s important to play other people, esp. beginners. While you won’t get one on one attention, you’ll have fun, and you’ll meet some great people. And your private lessons will keep you from forming the bad habits that these instructors may overlook due to too many people to watch.
And that racquet is great for you. It’s important to start out with a cheap racquet, because you don’t know your style of play yet. So if you were to go and buy an expensive racquet now, you’d have to get a new one in a year anyway because, chances are, that racquet will not suit your play style.
Good luck and have fun. =]

yep you can! i started end of winter this year right after i turned 15 and i’ve come a long way and it’s really fun! i went for private and i think u should too atleast at first because you need the individual attention first. once you got the main stuff down i would think you should consider switching to a group lesson because playing with others is essential so you get a variety of balls hit to you and learn ffrom others. i joined a summer travel team and it helped soooo much! playing with others helped a lot. i am now on the high school team
umm a cheap racquet is best for now so you can see how you like it. once you get a lot better than you might want a better one but yeah it’ll be fine and still good. good luck!
