I will help you get better at chess


About this gig
Im a lifelong learner and competitive chess player who discovered the game as a kid after watching my parents play. What began as curiosity quickly became a hobby, then a passion. As I improved, I fell in love with the challenge of over-the-board battles and the constant pursuit of growth.
Because I lacked formal, structured training in my early years, I understand the improvement journey firsthand. I know what it feels like to struggle with the basics, feel stuck, and wonder how to reach the next level. I also know the satisfaction that comes from breaking through those barriers.
Books and videos can teach concepts, but they cant provide personalized feedback. By analyzing your games, well identify recurring patterns, build on your strengths, address your weaknesses, and create a practical improvement plan.
Im especially passionate about helping ambitious adult learners break through their next rating barrier.

FAQ
How are the sessions conducted?
A session is typically conducted through Google meet, zoom or skype where I provide insights to your game and we analyze through screen shares and mutual analysis on Lichess studies.
How are the lessons delivered, and what software do I need?
Lessons are 1-on-1 via GMeet and we use a private lichess study to walk through positions and your games. You only need a free lichess account.
How quickly will I see improvement in my chess rating?
Honestly, it depends on how much you play and how disciplined you are with the training. Adults who put in 2-4h per week alongside coaching, typically see meaningful rating gains within 2-3 months
