Hi Francisco,
Just hit the ball against the wall with topspin. This will come back to you with backspin. You can chop this ball for practice.
It would be OK at the basic level, but it is no substitute for a hitting partner.

Forehand and Backhand Topspin
The forehand and backhand topspin strokes are two of the most important strokes in table tennis. In lesson 6 you start playing these strokes first by getting someone to throw the ball to you. This makes it easier to get into the correct position and concentrate on the correct start and finish position, and the essential brushing contact. You can then progress to using this in a rally where your training partner learns to block the topspin back.
