Is it the most effective way to learn? Possibly. But I'm a tennis fanatic and have no desire to hit against a wall. If he wanted to pick up boxing, would you tell him to hit a punching bag for hours?
No, I would tell him to hit the heavy bag -- which is exactly the same focking thing as hitting against a backboard -- just like every other boxer in the history of the sport has spent hours upon hours doing.
I feel like you were kinda proud of yourself for that example there. Sorry I had to be the one to break it to you that it didn't work.

You're proud of yourself for your complete fail at giving advice. The question was asked by an adult learning to pick up tennis. Adults are not looking to become Djokovic by wasting their free time hitting against a wall for hours on end. Adults ARE looking to enjoy themselves, and possibly meet new people and make friends at the same time.
The only thing you said that made any sense was to join a league. But that can only come after learning how to play the game. And you won't ever learn the rules or how to play against opponents from a wall.
I'm sorry you lack the life experience to assist others.
