Grand-Maître, Top 20 French and Coach of the French teams, gives chess lessons from a distance

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
♛ All skill levels are welcome, from the beginner eager to expand their knowledge, to more seasoned players looking to secure coveted chess titles.

● Progress in chess can be long and winding. And without a coach's guidance, bad decisions and the habit of "bad reflexes" become a drag that so many players have known.
That's why when you want to ensure long-term progress, taking the advice of an experienced player will cut you short from others, and encourage you to keep going.

● The goal of the first session together will be to determine with you what is best suited to work. An assessment of your strengths and weaknesses will therefore be made to allow yourself to plan a work program in the short and medium term. Having a clear idea of what we will be working together, and knowing what you can do on your own is essential.

● I can also prepare the study of any area that interests you. The goal being above all that your motivation and your pleasure remain intact.

➜ For the technical aspect, I use Skype to communicate, as well as the Lichess or chesscom interface (two completely free interfaces mainly intended for playing chess online) to share an analysis chessboard. It's very easy to use, and super practical!

So don't hesitate to contact me, and we can directly discuss your situation and your goals :)

MY JOURNEY

Now 29 years old, I had a fairly classic chess apprenticeship with my father at the age of 7. Showing more skill and interest there than judo and tailoring, I pushed open a club door, and it never closed.

I progressed throughout my youth, helped by successive coaches, International Masters or Grand Masters, until I became so in turn

Chess coach for over 10 years. I decided to professionalize myself at the age of 24, once my studies were finished and my title of Grand Master reached.
I am also coach of the young French teams, and preparer of the adult French team for several years.

Also a writer, I have published two opening books (The Modernized Reti, and The Modernized Dutch, at Thinker's Publishing).

I regularly do video series for Chess24, of which I leave you an extract!

Despite my player soul which means that I will never stop, teaching has taken precedence over my practice of chess, and it is a choice that I do not really regret, as the progress of my students can be a source of pleasure and satisfaction.

Chess lessons for professional career or presonal development given by the Scottish Cup winner.
Hi, I’m a professional chess player with over 20 years of experience, twice champion of Scotland, a league winner, and a multiple-time winner of international tournaments. I’ve worked with students of all ages and skill levels — from absolute beginners to seasoned tournament players — and I always adapt my approach to the specific goals and personality of each student. For the past seven years, I’ve been working as a dedicated chess instructor. Many of my students have gone on to win tournaments themselves, and I continue coaching players from different countries, often teaching in multiple languages to support their growth. Whether you're looking to explore chess for personal development, sharpen your thinking skills, or take your game to the next level competitively, I can help. My lessons are tailored — we can focus on tournament prep, building and refining your opening repertoire, going deep into endgames, understanding positional play, or just playing with structure and purpose. I bring a method that’s not just about memorizing moves but truly understanding the game and enjoying it. No matter your age or level, there’s always a next step — and I’ll help you take it.
