Due to my past experience in Chess coaching( 2000+ hours) I can breakdown complex strategies into simple digestible steps, for students to understand easily. I can tailor lessons to individual learning paces, track progress and make game highly engaging. Most important part of coaching is to analyze my students games, specifically the losses and then decide how to improve on it.

The key part is to analyze your games, so we will start the class with game analysis for students and then checking on how to improve on all three stages of game (opening, middlegame and endgame).

Hi, my name is Gabriel. I'm the head coach of the chess team of the National University of Mexico (UNAM) since 2010. I speak fluent English as I lived six years in Oxford, England, when I was a child and I practice it since then.

With the UNAM's team I have obtained the following titles:
National Women's Championship: 2014, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019
National Men's Championship: 2018, 2019
Absolute National Championship: 2018, 2019
Panamerican 2013 in Durango: silver medal

I also have extensive experience with players of all ages and levels. Here is a list of the places where I have worked:
- UNAM's Children's Chess Program since 2012.
- Private schools.
- CEDAT School for gifted children.
- Private sports and social clubs.
- Homeschoolers
- Personal chess coach since 2005.

My peak rating is 2165 FIDE ELO, which would be equivalent to the USCF National Master level, although really my chess dedication has been focused on teaching.
I would love to help you learn chess or improve your game to reach competitive levels. It does not matter your degree of experience, your level of play, or your age.

I am attentive to any questions you may have.
Greeting and I wish you success!

I am an enthusiastic chess coach from Belgium, 24 years old, with the title of International Master and the current Belgian Champion. To me, chess is much more than a game: it is a way to develop logical thinking, concentration, and creativity.

I enjoy working with players of all ages and levels, from beginners to advanced, as long as they share the same passion for the game. Teaching is almost as important to me as playing myself. Over the past six years, I have coached some of Belgium's most promising young talents, and many of them have won gold and other medals at youth competitions.

Whether you want to learn how to play the endgame better, improve your tactical insight, or simply have fun playing chess, I am happy to help you take your game to the next level. Chess is not only fun; it also trains your patience, concentration, and problem-solving skills – skills you can use throughout your life.

My name is Ahmed, and I'm a passionate and experienced chess teacher (1850 Elo Chess.com). I offer lessons tailored to all levels – from the curious beginner to the advanced player looking to refine their strategy. My lessons cover all phases of the game: Openings, with in-depth work on general principles, as well as the study of specific systems such as the Scotch Game, ideal for its dynamic and instructive nature, and the French Defense, known for its strategic solidity and positional richness. The middlegame, where I help students understand typical plans, pawn structures, tactical combinations, and develop their intuition and calculation skills. Endgames, too often neglected, but essential for capitalizing on an advantage.

Chess is easy to learn and a lifetime to master- let's skip ahead. Whether you've never moved a pawn or you're chasing your next rating jump, these lessons sharpen the way you think, not just the way you play.

We'll work on the tactics that win games, the patterns grandmasters see instantly, and the quiet positional ideas that decide the rest. Your games become the textbook — every loss is a lesson, every win a clue.

Online or in person. Bring a board, or just your curiosity.
