Do you want to learn to play chess better? Personal chess lessons for youth and adults – KNSB ±2100Translate this text using Google Translate.

Do you want to learn to play chess better? Personal chess lessons for youth and adults – KNSB ±2100Translate this text using Google Translate.

Do you want to improve your chess skills, but aren't sure how to go about it? Or do you want to strengthen your child in a fun and effective way? I give personal chess lessons to beginners, juniors, and advanced players. With a KNSB rating of approximately 2100 and chess experience since the age of 6, I help students not only to find better moves, but above all to understand why a move is right or wrong. A higher rating does not automatically mean that someone is the best coach for every level. Especially for players between approximately 1000 and 1900, I find it important to explain chess ideas clearly, understandably, and practically. My goal is for you to be able to actually apply the knowledge you have learned independently during your own games. During the lessons, we can work on, among other things: - Tactics and combinations - Developing strategies and plans - Openings and typical middlegame ideas - Party analyses - Identifying errors and areas for improvement - Learning to think and make decisions independently The lessons are fully tailored to your level and personal goals. Whether you are just starting out, want to improve as a club player, or are serious about growing towards 1800/2000: together we will look at what you need to take the next step. The lessons can be given online or at your home. Feel free to contact me to discuss exactly what you would like to improve.

IB: (MYP/DP). Mathematics: for every level. Physics: for every level. Economics: for every level. Chess: for beginners and advanced players.Translate this text using Google Translate.

IB (MYP/DP) I guide students within the IB curriculum, from MYP up to and including the Diploma Programme, in mathematics, physics, and economics. In addition to subject matter, I pay specific attention to the IB assessment criteria, such as researching, structuring, and applying in realistic contexts, where many students struggle even though they understand the material themselves. Through my experience with students at international schools in Amsterdam, I know exactly where the IB approach differs from the regular system and how to align with it. Math I tutor mathematics to students who want extra support or want to improve their results. During the lessons, I explain difficult topics step by step in a clear and calm manner. We work together on understanding, exercises, and efficient solution methods so that you gain more confidence and become stronger in the subject. Physics Physics becomes much simpler when you understand the logic behind the formulas. During my lessons, you will learn not only how to apply theory and formulas, but above all how to solve problems in a structured way. We practice together with examples and exam questions so that you truly understand the material and are better prepared for tests and exams. Economy I help students clearly understand economic concepts and theories and apply them correctly. During the lessons, we work on gaining insight into themes such as supply and demand, markets, inflation, enterprises, and financial analysis. Through practical examples and exercises, economics becomes clearer and easier to apply. To play chess These chess lessons are suitable for beginners and advanced players who want to improve their level. You will learn important principles such as opening techniques, tactics, strategy, endgames, and positional awareness. During the lessons, we analyze games and practice practical situations so that you learn to play stronger and more confidently.

Tournament preparation and game analysis with a FIDE Master, for club players and rated juniorsTranslate this text using Google Translate.

Tournament preparation and game analysis with a FIDE Master, for club players and rated juniorsTranslate this text using Google Translate.

This class is for players who already compete: club players, rated juniors, and adults preparing for a specific tournament. If you are starting from the beginning, my other class is the better fit. We start with your own games. You send me five or six recent ones, and in the first session I show you the pattern behind your losses - not the individual blunders, but the recurring decision that keeps costing you points. Most players are losing rating to two or three habits, and naming them is half the work. From there we build the preparation around your calendar: - Opening repertoire that is narrow enough to prepare properly, chosen for the tournaments you actually play. - Opponent research before a round: what they play, where they are uncomfortable, what to steer towards. - Middlegame plans out of your own structures, so preparation and play connect. - Endgame technique for the positions that decide competitive games - rook endings above all. - Calculation under time pressure, trained with a clock, because untimed exercises do not transfer. - Time management and how to play the round after a loss. Every game you play between lessons is analysed move by move before we next meet, and you get written homework. About me: I am Agil Pirverdiyev, a FIDE Master and FIDE-certified trainer from Baku, Azerbaijan. Fifteen years of coaching, more than 100 students. Rating 2411 classical and 2508 rapid. Under 16 World Champion in 2011, Under 14 European Champion, team silver at the Chess Olympiad. I also hold the FIDE arbiter title, with open tournament wins in Italy, Switzerland, France and Spain. Lessons run on Lichess or Chess.com over video, in English, Turkish or Azerbaijani. The first 30-minute meeting is free. Packages: 5 lessons, or 10 lessons with one free - you pay for nine and we play ten.

Chess lessons for beginners and intermediate players | Tactics, strategy and game analysis [ONLINE]Translate this text using Google Translate.

Chess lessons for beginners and intermediate players | Tactics, strategy and game analysis [ONLINE]Translate this text using Google Translate.

Passionate about chess since childhood and a teacher by profession, I offer online courses aimed primarily at beginner and intermediate players who wish to progress in a structured way while retaining the pleasure of playing. My goal is not simply to teach you moves or openings to memorize. My main aim is to help you understand why a move is good, how to construct a plan, and how to identify tactical possibilities on the chessboard. The courses are tailored to your level, age and goals. Depending on your needs, we can work: - the rules of the game and the fundamental principles; - the development of the pieces and the principles of opening; - tactics: forks, pins, skewers, discovered attacks, typical checkmates; - the strategy and the construction of a plan; - the middle of the game; - the essential finals; - the calculation of variants; - time management; - the analysis of your own games. An important part of my method involves analyzing the games you've played with you. Together, we look for key moments, mistakes, missed opportunities, and the best alternatives. For beginners, we progress gradually in order to build good habits from the very first games. For intermediate players, we can work more specifically on their weaknesses, delve deeper into certain tactical or strategic themes, and analyze their games in detail. The lessons are interactive: you play, you think, you suggest moves and we analyze the positions together. Children, teenagers and adults are welcome.

Learning the fundamentals: Learn or consolidate the essential principles in the opening, middlegame and endgames. 2. Tactics and strategy: develop your sense of the game with targeted, fun and practical exercises. 3. Analyze your games: Understand your mistakes, identify your strengths, and apply this knowledge in your games. My goal is to offer you a clear and complete vision of the game, to progress effectively and achieve your goals, whether it is to play for pleasure or in competition.

“ We are incredibly grateful to have found Prashil through Apprentus. He has been tutoring our son Floris, who is currently in Grade 10 at the International School of Utrecht and follows the HL Maths curriculum. Floris is highly gifted but also has dyslexia, which presents unique challenges in his learning process. Prashil has proven to be the perfect match for him. He is calm, patient, and adapts his teaching style to Floris’s needs in a way that builds both understanding and confidence. Prashil’s structured and thoughtful approach has made a significant difference, and Floris truly enjoys their lessons. We highly recommend Prashil to anyone looking for a skilled and empathetic math tutor. ”

“ I had my first class with Dmytro and I really enjoyed it. He takes his classes very seriously (he was very punctual, he had indicated to me in advance the apps/tools needed for the class, he was asking if I have questions, he replied very quickly to my messages before the class...). Also, he was very patient with me (I have a low level in chess...). I liked a lot that he was not just explaining "book" theory of chess, but also the practical tricks. I will book a second class. 100% recommended :) ”

“ Fawzi is friendly with an approachable manner. He is quick to understand your level of French and what needs to be achieved. He explains French very well and makes you feel comfortable even if you are inexperienced and looks for the positives in your approach to learning. I am happy with our training schedule so far and I hope to develop and gain confidence in my pronunciation of French and speaking. ”
