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!

Chess Coaching:
Building Thinkers, One Move at a Time
Chess is not just a game — it is a training ground for the mind. My chess coaching sessions are designed to take students from absolute beginners to confident, competitive players through a structured, level-specific curriculum that grows with them.
Every student follows a personalised syllabus built around where they currently stand — not a generic one-size-fits-all plan. Sessions are divided across four core pillars:
Tactics & Combinations — Pattern recognition, forks, pins, skewers, discovered attacks and more. Students learn to see threats before they happen.
Opening Preparation — Building a solid, reliable opening repertoire suited to the student's style and level. No memorisation — pure understanding.
Endgame Technique — The most underrated part of chess. Students learn how to convert winning positions and save difficult ones.
Game Analysis — Every game played is a lesson waiting to be unlocked. We analyse together, find the turning points, and build better decision-making habits over time.
On top of sessions, every student receives:
Daily written feedback after each class
AI-assisted game analysis for deeper pattern recognition
Monthly progress reports with clear improvement tracking
Personalised study plan updated regularly
I work with students aged 5 to 16 across beginner to intermediate levels, teaching in both Hindi and English. My students have reached State Level Championships, improved ratings by 400+ points, and most importantly — developed a genuine love for the game.
Trial session is completely free. Book yours today.

Mathematics Tutoring:
Making Mathematics Make Sense
Mathematics has a reputation for being difficult. In my experience, the problem is never the student — it is always the approach.
My tutoring sessions cover CBSE Mathematics from Class 6 to Class 12 and Science from Class 6 to Class 10, delivered online in both Hindi and English. Every session is concept-first — we build understanding before we build speed.
Sessions are structured around:
Concept Building — No shortcuts, no rote learning. Every topic is explained from the ground up until the student genuinely understands — not just remembers.
Exam Preparation — Board exam pattern practice, mock tests, past papers, and targeted revision for maximum performance when it counts.
Doubt Resolution — Every doubt is addressed every single session. No question is too basic. No confusion is left unresolved.
Progress Tracking — Regular assessments to measure improvement, identify weak areas, and adjust the teaching plan accordingly.
Students under my guidance have shown consistent and measurable improvement in CBSE Board Examinations. I have maintained tutoring relationships of up to 2 years — because when students start understanding Mathematics, they don't want to stop.

First session free. Let's find your turning point.

Improve your chess through a structured training programme built around your own games, goals and recurring mistakes.

I work with ambitious juniors and adult players from beginner level to approximately 1900 online. Lessons can cover game analysis, calculation, candidate-move selection, tactical awareness, positional understanding, practical endgames, opening structures, time management and tournament preparation.

Each lesson combines clear explanations with practical exercises. After the lesson, you receive annotated study material, targeted homework and a specific training objective for the following week.

For junior students, I can also provide parents with regular written progress updates. Before the first lesson, please send me your current rating and two recent games so that I can prepare an individual assessment.

Lessons are conducted online in English.

I am a competitive chess player and experienced coach with a Chess.com rating of around 2600 in Blitz and Bullet and a German national rating, DWZ, of approximately 2100.

I have almost two years of paid coaching experience. I have taught private students and worked in school chess, coaching children, teenagers and adults at different levels. Before moving to Germany, I maintained a regular private coaching practice in Ukraine.

I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Philosophy, which has shaped my analytical and structured teaching approach. I focus on helping students understand the reasoning behind their decisions rather than memorising moves without context.

My feedback is calm, direct and adapted to the student’s level, goals and available training time. I teach in English and also speak Ukrainian, Russian and intermediate German. I am currently based in Germany and work with students internationally online.

We will work through typical middlegame structures, endgames and how to study on one’s own between sessions bringing in elements of how to work on chess effectively and how to make gains with the ‘little and often’ approach. We will discuss your online games and find improvements and typical patterns of your play. Finally, over time working with me, I will offer opening repertoires based on the types of position that will be both challenging, but also work within the way you want to play chess
