I also have an extensive professional and personal background in meditation (10 years), astrology (5 years) and healing (particularly Reiki, 4 years). I am very interested in the intersection between a healing/mindfulness-awareness approach and singing/playing piano.

About Siddharth
Hi there, my name is Siddharth and I have been teaching chess in public and private schools, including private lessons, over the last three years.
I love to see students grow with each lesson and accomplish their goals. Under my tutelage, I have helped students advance from beginner level to tournament level competition. Recently, two of my students have won in their respective tournaments.
I attended De Monte Fort University in England and earned my degree in Textile Technology and Business Management in 1976. Since then I have been fortunate to be able to travel worldwide.
I enjoy teaching children of all ages, as well as adults. My philosophy is to make chess a fun experience while improving my students' technical skills.
I look forward to helping you reach your goals.

About Gilbert
hello today!
I am a very dynamic person. My specialties include computer programming, music composition, and poker.
With respect to programming, I have utilized BASIC, C, C++, Java, REXX, PHP, and JavaScript. This was my career for quite awhile.
I have a total of about 700 musical recordings that I composed and produced. I have hundreds of pages of musical compositions that I have composed and utilized. I taught myself how to compose.
I have always enjoyed the complexities of poker. So many great life lessons! I know how to win, but I have to confess...I usually just can't keep it up! In other words, I expect serious learners to become better players than myself!
Looking forward to any questions, cheers!
