About me

I am a moderately active chess player that can teach at all levels and age groups. Usually I only teach 1:1 but open to other options.

Looking for serious over the board students that want to compete in tournaments, while I help students augment their learning with online resources, at the moment I am not teaching online.

Playing experience

My peak USCF was about 2250.

Teaching experience

I have taught many kids over the years from age 5 to 18 and some adults too including my own children.

Best skills

Middle game thinking and focus on improvement.

Teaching methodology

Heavy focus on practical game play and tournament results.
