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!

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.

Let's get acquainted! Sign up for the lessons to see this approach in action.
