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!

Practical Chess Mastery for Beginners & Intermediates

♟️ Course Overview
Are you stuck in the 800–1200 rating range? Do you find yourself winning a great position only to blunder it away in the endgame? This course is designed to bridge the gap between "moving the pieces" and playing real chess.

Led by Andrei Daniel, an active competitive player in the Romanian chess circuit, this course focuses on the practical skills you need to stop losing to yourself and start beating your opponents. Unlike courses by Super GMs that focus on complex theory you’ll never use, we focus on the 1600-level fundamentals that actually decide games at the club level.

👨‍🏫 About Your Instructor
Andrei Daniel is not just an online player; he is a battle-tested tournament competitor.

Arena FIDE Master (AFM): Officially recognized title by the World Chess Federation.

Active Club Player: Regular competitor in Romanian national leagues and tournaments.

Practical Experience: With a playing strength of ~2300, Andrei specializes in the exact transition phase where most players get stuck: moving from beginner intuition to intermediate calculation.

🚀 What You Will Learn
This course is divided into two tracks depending on your current level:

Track 1: The Foundation (Rating 400 – 1000)
Stop the Bleeding: How to perform a "Blunder Check" before every move.

Opening Principles > Memorization: Why controlling the center matters more than memorizing 15 moves of theory.

Tactical Vision: Spotting the forks, pins, and skewers that win games instantly.

The "Checkmate Pattern" Library: Essential mating nets every beginner must know.

Track 2: The Club Player (Rating 1000 – 1500)
Thinking Like a Tournament Player: How to calculate variations without getting confused.

Positional Squeeze: Creating long-term weaknesses in your opponent's camp when there are no immediate tactics.

Endgame Essentials: King activity, opposition, and how to convert a pawn-up advantage into a win.

Opening Repertoire: Building a solid, low-maintenance opening set for White and Black (e.g., London System, Caro-Kann, or similar solid structures).

💡 Why This Course?
Real-Game Analysis: We won't just study famous games from the 1800s. We will analyze your games to find your specific bad habits.

Psychology of Chess: Learn how to handle time pressure and recover from a bad loss.

Direct Feedback: Get personalized advice from a coach who plays competitively in the modern era.

🎓 Who Is This For?
Beginners who know the rules but don't have a plan.

Online Players (Chess.com/Lichess) who want to cross the 1200 or 1500 Elo barrier.

Adult Improvers looking for a structured, no-nonsense approach to learning.

Ready to Level Up?
Stop playing on autopilot. Join Andrei Daniel and build the foundation for a lifetime of better chess.

My approach is founded on a simple principle: interest + understanding = confidence. I avoid burdening children with dry theory. Instead, through games, puzzles, and engaging tasks, I reveal how the minds of great chess players operate. We analyze games like detective stories, where every move is a clue to be deciphered.

Why do parents entrust me with their children?

🧠 I develop thinking, not just teach rules. Your child will learn to analyze situations, anticipate consequences, and make deliberate decisions—both in the game and in life.

👧 I am committed to every child. I successfully engage with students as young as four, understanding how to maintain a preschooler's focus and how to intellectually challenge a teenager.

📈 I create an individual learning path for each student. I begin by understanding your child's character and goals, then build a tailored program that fits them precisely.

🏆 I take pride in my students' achievements. It is important to me that a child not only understands chess but also experiences the thrill of their first victories—whether in a tournament or simply in solving a difficult puzzle.

My primary goal is to see your child's eyes light up after every lesson, with new ideas sparking in their mind.
