Future candidate master.

I'm also a chess teacher with a real passion for the game.

I started playing at the age of five and I'm proud to pass on this knowledge to my dear students.

I already have many years of experience in teaching chess. As a player, I've won several prizes over the years. My chess insight even helps me in my daily life. I'll teach you structure, how to plan attacks, see patterns and much more.

I'm all about making chess a fun and challenging experience.

Feel free to contact me if you're interested in a chess lesson.

♟️ Why take lessons?

► Are you a busy adult with limited time and don't know what or how to work on to progress in chess?
► Are you the parent of an ambitious child and do not know how to guide him in his progress?
► Are you a beginner player wishing to discover the game with a titled player, in a good mood?

Then this announcement is for you and taking private lessons will save you a lot of time! Indeed, with my experience and my mastery of the game, I am able to:

► To establish a coherent and effective work plan adapted to your level, whatever it is.
► To identify your shortcomings very quickly and to find a remedy.
► Provide or direct you to resources that meet your needs.
► To flesh out the discovery sessions of the game with personal anecdotes or concerning its fascinating history.

Overall, I am able to accelerate your progress in a fun and effective way.

♟️ Course of the first lesson:

Ideally, the student sends me some parts of him as well as a brief description of his personal objectives before making contact. Then, during the first lesson, we get to know each other around an educational part.

♟️ General course schedule:

From the second lesson, we begin the analysis of your games.

I ask you to provide me with games that you have played from which I select the most didactic. I teach primarily based on my students' parts because lessons learned from personal experience stay longer and more easily remembered. However, I sometimes show famous and/or illustrative parts when it seems relevant to me to do so to support a point.

After a few sessions, I have a very precise idea of the state of your knowledge and I am able to personalize the course according to your needs. From then on, I provide you with exercises and recommend resources that correspond perfectly to the aspect of the game that you must work on to progress as efficiently as possible.

♟️ Topics covered during the courses:

My goal is to make you a complete player!
I have accompanied several players from a beginner level to an advanced level (2000+), and I know the different steps to take to become a good player, as well as the methods that work to achieve this.

Among the topics that we cover in the course and that I help you master are (more or less in order):

► Basic masts
► The importance of the material
► Simple mating patterns
► Simple tactical diagrams
► The 4 basic principles for a successful opening
► Elementary endings to effectively end a game
► Basic strategy: strong / weak side, development of a coherent plan at the exit of the opening, improvement of the pieces
► Candidate moves

Then, for more experienced players:

► Advanced tactical diagrams
► A complete and effective opening repertoire, adapted to your style and your level
► Advanced endgames: Activity of the king, passed pawn, activity of the pieces, majority on a wing, etc...
► Advanced strategy: pawn structures, open file, the 7th row, attacking the king, weaknesses, strong squares, prophylaxis, reading the opponent's plan, evaluating a position, exchanging the right pieces, etc...
► Calculation
► Chess creativity

♟️ Classes with children:

I adapt my course in order to capture their attention constantly, I ask them funny and relevant questions so that they retain the lessons easily. I make sure that they are participants in the lesson and not spectators.

I generally end the lesson with a game against them where I expressly leave a few errors lying around, so as to create spontaneous didactic moments (sometimes with a hint!). A brief summary of the mistakes made during the game follows, which serves as a hook for the next lesson.

Two of my students (with whom I have been working for 2 years) finished 1st and 5th in their respective age categories at the last Belgian youth championships.

♟️ Courses on the internet:

For online lessons, I use Discord or Skype to chat and share my camera, as well as the lichess platform to analyze and show games or exercises.

The latter has a tool allowing the teacher and the student to interact on the same chessboard in real time, and to show ideas using arrows and colored boxes. The student can find all the previous lessons at any time by consulting the work sessions archived on the platform.

♟️ Opening hours:

Monday to Saturday, 10 a.m. to 9 p.m.
I am available in case you have questions outside of class, I am happy to answer them. I am flexible if ever a course had to be moved due to an unforeseen event.

♟️ Languages:

Classes can be given in French, English and Dutch.

♟️ In summary:

I am professional, pedagogue and available. You lose nothing by contacting me!

Don't be afraid if you are a beginner, most of my students are.

Always wanted to improve in chess or win against that one friend? Then you've come to the right place! Together we will analyze where things go wrong in your games so that you will beat that one friend very quickly! ;)
I completely tailor the lesson to your preferences / needs. In addition, during the first meeting I will make an assessment of where your points for improvement lie and what you already master.
I teach in a narrative and humorous way so that the subject matter stays with the student.
The lessons are intended for beginners or people who already know how to play chess and want to learn new concepts, strategies or tactics.

I won the Belgian, Flemish and East Flemish School Chess Championship twice. Furthermore, I already have an experience of 5 years teaching both children and adults. I've always loved doing this. There is nothing more beautiful than showing people the beauty of chess. The better you get the more beautiful the game becomes as you gain more insight into it. Queen sacrifices and nice mate combinations are one of the most blissful things you can achieve in chess. I want you to experience this feeling for yourself.

I've been playing chess for over 5 years now, I've gotten an online rating of 2000 and I've played a couple FIDE rated and national-rated tournaments. I'm looking to share my knowledge about chess, from beginner to intermediate. I can help with middle-game strategy, as well as lessons about tactics, openings, and some specific endgames.

So, I played my first game of Chess on Christmas Eve 2022, I played a few games with family members... and somehow I won them all!

This peaked my interest, so I decided to learn a bit more about it. I can safely say it's one of the best choices iv'e made.

I decided to set my goal at 2000 Elo on the next Christmas Eve, turns out I didnt need that much time, I had already gotten to 2000 ELO on te 13th of October, and was 2100 ELO on Christmas Eve.

If you want someone who still remembers how a beginner thinks, AND has experience in fast improvement. I'd be happy to be the one to give you this knowledge.

I offer both online and face-to-face training. For online training we can use Discord, Skype or Zoom.

The training is adapted to the needs of the student. During the lessons, we work together to identify the student's weaknesses and work specifically on them.
I was first introduced to chess at the age of 5. At 17 I joined the Düsseldorf Chess Club and at 18 I headed a primary school chess club.
I have a Chess.com online Rapid Rating of around 1650, which puts me in the top 2% of rapid chess players on Chess.com.
I use a large part of my free time to improve my chess skills by working through books, solving problems, playing games, analyzing them extensively and exchanging ideas with other players.

Hi, I’m Merlijn! I’m 23 years old and studying History at the University of Amsterdam. Chess has been a huge part of my life since I learned the game from my grandfather at the age of four. Twenty years later, we still play every time we see each other. Chess is a beautiful game—easy to learn in minutes but challenging enough to spend a lifetime mastering. I’d love to share my passion and knowledge with you!
How My Lessons Work
I offer flexible, personalized chess lessons for players of all levels. Here’s how a typical lesson is structured:
• Playing a game: We start with a game where both the student and I verbalize our thought processes behind each move.
• Theme of the day: We go through a lesson from the Stappenmethode, a proven chess training system.
• Key Concepts & Strategy: I explain an important chess concept, opening, or technique to improve your understanding of the game.
• Personalized Feedback: Before each session, I analyze some of your past games to identify areas for improvement.
Whether you’re a beginner or an advanced player looking to sharpen your skills, I’d love to help you grow as a chess player. Let’s play, learn, and improve together!

If you're stuck around 1200–1800 level or wish to simply get better, it can feel kinda messy figuring out openings, tactics, positions, and endgames on your own.
I'm a 2000 FIDE-rated coach who's helped kids at youth championships for years, and I got trained on how to actually teach by one of Europe's best coaches. So I've put together these sessions to make things practical and straightforward.

We'll work on building a clear way to think during games, spotting tactics fast, getting key ideas like pawn structure and piece play, reviewing your own games to fix mistakes, and setting up solid openings and endgames that actually win you games. The experience will be tailored to you based on how much you wish to learn and whether youre a casual online enjoyer or wish to become more competitive in tournaments.
It's all about having more fun, making fewer dumb blunders, winning more games, and just enjoying chess more.
