I'm here to help remove the stress from chess learning and to make the process fun and enjoyable. My lessons will help you or your children gain a deeper understanding of the art of chess and improve your confidence and ability to play the game.

I am an experienced and effective chess tutor with 20 plus years teaching background both in the classroom and online using the lichess platform. I have a USCF Rating of 2100 Which is Candidate Master and USCF Senior Master title at Correspondence Chess (slow chess). Most of my students are kids fairly new to chess but I would encourage adults who are on the fence about taking lessons to give it a try as they are probably underestimating their ability. I would recommend a 60 min lesson for students age 7 and older and a shorter lesson for younger kids. I can prepare lessons for both the casual player and someone playing in rated tournaments. I'll see you on the 64 squares!

I am an avid chess player. I am a 3rd category chess player. I am part of the Chess Federation in Peru and USA. I can teach little kids as well as to people who want to improve their openings, middle game, and endgame. My Rating is 1500+.

I have been teaching chess for 5+ years. I have a unique teaching style that is oriented around each student individually. My lessons revolve around finding the strengths and weaknesses of each player and creating a personalized plan using that information. Throughout my chess journey, I have reached the title of a USCF chess expert with an USCF rating of 2100+ through mostly self-study. I know the exact methods and techniques that took me to this level, and I wish to share it with others. My objective is to help you get better at the game of chess, as learning chess will improve your ability to focus deeper and increase your analytical thoughts. The first lesson will be a diagnosis of the student's play through an in-depth and thorough analysis of the student's games from either tournament or online play. Students are recommended to provide as much information regarding their chess prior to the lesson. Through this diagnosis, I can begin to see which areas will need to be focused on for maximum improvement. This will form a basis for how future lessons will be structured and what topics will be covered. Alongside each lesson, PGN (portable game notation) files will be provided for the student to review after the lesson. Homework positions will also be assigned to ensure that the student has fully grasped the material. While chess is known to be a difficult game to master, I aim to provide instruction in a clear and easy-to-digest manner.
