About my online chess classes

Individual approach
The primary principle underlying my chess coaching is the individualized approach. With each student, we craft a tailored program that caters to their specific needs and aspirations. This system ensures the utmost development of the child’s unique talents and capabilities.

You will see your progress
I will establish numerous intermediate goals for a student, tailored to their unique journey in chess. These goals may include achieving a specific rating on chess.com, mastering a designated number of assignments, delving into particular topics, or even aiming for the prestigious title of “chess grandmaster”.

Method of chess coaching
In my role as a chess coach online, I employ contemporary chess software as a pivotal component of our training regimen. So you’ll have the opportunity to manipulate pieces on the virtual chessboard, thoroughly review, and practice new concepts following our private chess lessons. Furthermore, after each session, I provide homework assignments and offer guidance to ensure you complete them successfully.

I will help you get practice
I organize online chess tournaments for my students, and I send out real gifts to the winners. During coronavirus pandemics, many live tournaments are canceled, so this is the right motivation to maintain interest.
