Every of my students has individual program. On the first stage my goal is to estimate your skill set. In other words – to understand the level of calculation, how good is the opening repertory, if he has heard about endgame etc. After that we create the plan of work on openings. I say which openings we must improve as soon as possible and which ones have to be known for future. Besides the openings very important point is endgame and strategy.
All of my classes I usually make as a dialog. It is never like I greet my student, talk throughout the class and say goodbye. My main task is to make lessons informative and interesting.
I will be glad to help you to become better in this amazing game! Just contact me and let me know what days and times are available for the first lesson!
