Beginner and Intermediate Chess Lessons for All Ages from a Women's Champion in London/OnlineTranslate this text using Google Translate.

Beginner and Intermediate Chess Lessons for All Ages from a Women's Champion in London/OnlineTranslate this text using Google Translate.

Hi, I'm Saiya! I have been playing competitive chess my whole life. As a child, I played and worked at chess for many years before finally having a breakthrough as a teenager, and I have continued to improve, even into my thirties as a PhD student with little spare time. As an adult, I have built community in chess and started giving lessons to people I met. I have encountered many different teaching techniques over the years, and have had the opportunity to see what works and what doesn't. All too many chess coaches rely on students to identify their own strengths and weaknesses and propose their own lesson plans. Of course, students are not always best positioned to identify their own strengths and weaknesses, and part of the function of a coach should be to assess the student and help them develop a study plan. I have five years of experience teaching linguistics at the university level, and I am accustomed to making lesson plans and using proven pedagogical techniques. As a coach, I will identify your strengths and weaknesses based on seeing your games and hearing your thought process. I will then create study plans consisting of games, puzzles, and interesting positions specifically tailored for you.

English Lessons: General English, Conversational Fluency, Business/Legal/Academic English (Online & In-Person)Translate this text using Google Translate.

Hello, my name is Dauirzhan! And I know the struggles or learning a new language. So, let me help you overcome them. These one-on-one English lessons will be tailored directly to your specific goals, level, and learning style. They are taught by me: a Cambridge CELTA-certified teacher with degrees in Law and International Relations, and we will focus on building real practical communication skills rather than repeating passive textbook drills. Whether you need to gain confidence in conversational English, master professional terminology for corporate work, or score higher on the IELTS exam, every session is designed around active practice and clear progress. Learning Tracks Offered: 1) General & Conversational English: Improve fluency, polish pronunciation, and build confidence for everyday conversations, travel, or living abroad. 2) Business & Legal English (ESP): Tailored training focusing on contract terminology, high-stakes negotiations, executive email writing, and professional presentations, drawing directly on legal and international relations experience. 3) IELTS & Exam Strategy: Focused exam preparation covering speaking, writing, reading, and listening strategies (85% of previous students achieved their target scores). 4) Academic English: Writing structure, analytical reading, and presentation skills for university applications and coursework. I learnt English myself once, so I know it can be complicated and may seem impossible. However, I will help you with learning English in the smoothest atmosphere possible and of course without forgetting about efficiency.

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.

Chess lessons for children, teens and adults | Adapted teaching methods, tactics and strategy [ONLINE and at home]Translate this text using Google Translate.

Chess has been a part of my life since I was 7 years old. I grew up with this game, participated in many competitions and, over time, I discovered one thing above all: I love sharing it. Today, I want to pass on this passion to those who wish to discover chess or simply become better, whether they are children, teenagers or adults. For children, my primary goal is for chess to remain enjoyable. Through the game, I help them learn to concentrate, take time to think before acting, anticipate, and better manage their emotions and impulsiveness. I adapt to their personality and pace, including when a child struggles to maintain focus for extended periods. For teenagers, the focus is more on progression: understanding their mistakes, developing their tactical reflexes, learning to build a plan and, for those who wish, increasing their Elo rating on Chess.com. For adults: whether you are starting from scratch or already play regularly, we can work together on your weaknesses, your games and your goals to allow you to progress while having more fun playing. I am a patient, smiling, and passionate person. I prefer a lesson where we exchange ideas, where the student reflects and searches for themselves, rather than a lesson where we simply recite variations. My goal is for you to finish each session having learned something... and with the desire to play again.

“ 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. ”
