My goal is to teach you how to play better and also improve your concentration with this ancient game.

The course is divided into three parts: A theoretical part where I show you typical tactical themes, then the student solves exercises and finally we play games.

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!

Trained by gaming experience, numerous books and one of the best French coaches, I support you in your personal poker development in MTT, tournament poker.
I am here to help you both with the mental aspect and with understanding the game itself.
The support takes place live and/or by watching your sessions. Whether it is to have the right reflexes in recurring situations, or to learn the basics from scratch if you are a complete beginner, I am always available and attentive. Learning the position, managing stack sizes, bet sizes, defining ranges, I am able to teach you by simplifying or not according to your level of understanding of the game, always in a positive approach and mutual trust.
I speak English, French, and Spanish.

My name Is Camilo and I am an Experienced international chess player that speaks English, French, and Spanish. I am a 1700+ rated chess player that has participated in clubs and tournaments throughout my career with 5 years of tutoring experience. Being trilingual has allowed me to teach people from all over the world. I first began by helping children with their French and Spanish as well as their organizational skills. However, I ended up gravitating toward my passion which is chess. I have various courses and modules prepared for each session. I also adapt very well to the level of experience of each student and what their goals are. Over three years I have developed a syllabus for my students, which includes: lesson 1 Chess Board and Pawn movement, Lesson 2 Review of Pawns, Lesson 3 The Bishops, Lesson 4 the Rooks, lesson 5 the Knights and the Queen, Lesson 6 the King and Checkmate, Lesson 7 Pawn Promotion and Stalemate, lesson 8 Castling, Lesson 9 Drawn games, lesson 10 Checkmate, Lesson 11 opening principles, and the Lesson 12 forking. This method has shown to help all of my students but as I said before I am happy and very capable of adapting to each student. This, of course, means that for my more advanced students I have a different syllabus for them more advanced lessons like for example “Pinning”. I also always prepare a puzzle for each session to challenge my students in various ways.

I love tutoring because I am still young and therefore tend to develop great relationships with my students. Chess is of course my passion so joining both is a dream of mine. I tend to teach younger students from ages 6-18 but don't mind other age groups. I worked with children that went to my old school which is the Lycee Francais de New York.

Feel free to contact me at any time, I will really try my best to work with your schedule. I hope you will give me an opportunity to help you because this is truly an amazing game!

Chess is a fun game that starts with the basic rules and moves through the 3 parts of the game: the opening, the middlegame, and the endgame.

The focus at first is to teach you how the pieces move, what the goal of the opening is, and how the pieces interact. You will also learn the vocabulary related to chess and chess notation.

Tactics are then explored to take advantage of hanging pieces, lack of king safety, space, and tempo. From here depending on what your personal goals are we will adapt the classes to cover what will help you progress.

I can also give group classes, contact me if you have a group, we can discuss how to best organise those classes and pricing.

- le vocabulaire des échecs, la notation des coups
- les différents types de mats, les principaux thèmes tactiques
- les principes généraux de la stratégie (contrôle du centre et développement des pièces)

L'objectif est d'acquérir et de renforcer les bons réflexes de jeu : développer une approche tactique, tout en apprenant les erreurs à éviter.

My goals are to help you progress, acquire a solid foundation, and above all, share my love of chess with you! Passion is the driving force behind learning.

I cover the following points in my classes:
- Tactics and calculation: the most important aspect of the game!
- Strategic principles: to allow you to acquire a good understanding of the game.
- Finals: so you have the advantage over those who have never worked on them!
I also offer game analyses, so that you can spot and understand your mistakes, and thus progress.

I am an experienced chess player and teacher, with many tournament victories in Japan, where I currently reside. My rating is around 2000 FIDE, and I am comfortable teaching students from absolute beginner level up to about 2000 FIDE, both online and face-to-face (depending on location).

I can teach lessons in English, Spanish, and Portuguese, upon request. I can also teach in Japanese, at a basic level, though due to my mediocre Japanese language ability, some slight misunderstandings may occur during classes.

The classes are customized according to the needs of the student. For instance, with beginners, the focus is on tactics, pattern recognition, and learning basic opening principles, endgames, and stategy. For advanced players, the coaching is much more personalized, and may focus on aspects such as identifying and improving their specific weaknesses, or helping them refine their opening repertoire for an upcoming tournament.

I am happy to discuss the needs of each student at length before starting classes, and regardless of what we agree on, I expect my students to make their best efforts during the classes and hope to really challenge them to think deeply about the material.

I offer private chess lessons tailored to beginners and intermediate players. Depending on your needs, we can work on opening principles, tactics, middlegame strategy, and even endgames.

I am a competitive player with a level of around 2100 Elo, which allows me to give clear explanations and practical advice to help you progress quickly.

The classes are interactive and focused as much on practice as on understanding. The goal is for you to learn not only what to play, but also why to play it, in order to develop your own style and confidence in front of the chessboard.

I’m a 2000-rated bilingual chess player on Chess.com with several years of experience teaching students through workshops and leading my high-school chess club.

Chess isn’t just a game. It is a way to train your mind to anticipate, take risk and stay calm under pressure. There are more possible chess combinations than electrons in the universe!
In this class, you’ll learn not only how to play chess, but how to think like a chess player.

We’ll cover:
1. Opening principles and how to control the board early.
2. Mid-game pattern recognition: attacking plans and defending under pressure.
3. Endgame techniques and how to convert small advantages into wins (Chess is often won by the difference of a pawn).
4. Tips and tricks on how to manage nerves, focus, and decision-making.

As a neuroscience student, I also help players understand how the brain makes decisions improving focus and intuition.

My approach combines strategiy, pattern recognition, and emotional control.
Whether you’re a beginner who wants to understand the board, or an intermediate player aiming to level up, each lesson is structured, practical, and fun.

Quick results will be visible!!!
