My coaching style is hands on, which means that I provide move by move feedback. My coaching philosophy is grounded in encouragement and meticulous game review. My one student that I have been coaching for 2 years went from never playing chess to a 1350 USCF chess rating

About SUNESIS
For as long as I can remember, friends and family have always described me as the girl with a book 📖 in her hands because I am almost always reading something. I love to read and write (creatively and even academically). My nieces and nephew started reading ahead of their class because of all the time we spent reading and learning words and sounds together. It’s always exciting to learn new things and open up yourself to a world of possibilities through books and other written materials.
I write poetry, manage my growing blog and crochet /Knit also. I try to reach myself something new as often as I can and hopefully we will be learning together.
