Whether you’re a complete beginner learning how the pieces move, a parent looking for a fun and educational activity for your child, or an adult hoping to refine your strategy, these lessons are designed for you.

I first began teaching chess at Fernwood Primary School, where I introduced 10–11-year-olds to new tactics, strategic thinking, and proper chess etiquette. Some of my students even went on to represent England and Nottinghamshire in national competitions — an experience that showed me how rewarding it is to help others grow through the game.

My lessons are engaging, supportive, and tailored to each student’s level and goals. We’ll cover everything from openings and mid-game strategy to endgames and competitive play, always at a comfortable pace.

Whether you want to play socially, compete in tournaments, or simply strengthen your focus and problem-solving skills, I’ll help you develop confidence and enjoy every move on the board.

My three main areas of expertise (not necessarily in this order):

- Chess: I teach chess to beginners and intermediate players up to ELO 1800 or ECF 1700, working on the tactical and strategic aspects of openings, middle games and endgames.. "chess is life in miniature"!

- Fitness / Running / Triathlon: I coach people who want to get fitter and generally incorporate any endurance activity into a health(ier) lifestyle. I am a dedicated coach who has competed in several marathons and Ironman races (also qualified for the Ironman World Championship). I focus on nutrition, stress and sleep as well for a holistic approach.

- Languages: I specialize in tutoring Italian and Spanish; my style is to keep students challenged and motivated through simple classes and practical exercises (pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary).. I'm a demanding teacher but will guide you in a fun and interactive way.

Please contact me if you have any interest in spending more time and energy in any of these 3 areas, and don't forget that "Mens Sana in Corpore Sano" is a good approach to look after yourself :)

Chess is a great game for having fun and sharpening the mind. Suitable for all ages, I offer classes for beginners to advanced players from ages of 5 upwards. As an online player myself with a blitz rating of 2440, I find the study and play of chess endlessly rewarding and hope that some of my passion can rub off on you. I offer lessons on all aspects of the game from the opening to the endgame, from simple queen and king endgames to Novotny interference I can provide puzzles and exercises for any level.
