Hi Ismail,
The most important thing is to recognise when the ball is long enough for you to attack and then to make a topspin attack at each opportunity.
Topspin is such an important stroke to be able to master and implement in matches. Work hard on these strokes in particular.

Tactics Against Penhold Players
When playing penhold players it is important to remember to first analyse your opponent as you would if they used any grip. What are their strengths and weaknesses? A common weakness of penhold players is their forehand block especially against a slow spinny topspin. Their backhand may be a weakness if they use the traditional style, or you may wish to explore the crossover point if they are using the reverse penhold backhand.

Also which serve should I use.
Should it bounce on the table twice or only once.
It is good to develop your short serve as you progress.
