Dhatuyo did a great job explaining concepts and giving strategies. I think some of the strategies he gave were very helpful and some might not have been helpful for my chess playing. Overall, very fun lesson though!

About this gig
I'm a FIDE Candidate Master (since 2013) with 10+ years of tournament experience, representing Indonesia at the World Youth & World School Chess Championships. 5.0 stars | 140+ students | 5 years coaching.
I've helped students like Bryan, an 8-year-old who gained +400 rating in 3 months and Joudel, who improved 200+ points in one month, and harryosmith1990, who felt a deeper understanding of the game after just 2 sessions -and many more like them. Whether you're a complete beginner or an intermediate player stuck at a plateau, I'll find exactly what's holding you back and give you a clear path forward in a single session.
Every session includes: - Personalized game analysis to find your specific patterns and weaknesses - Opening, middlegame, and endgame guidance tailored to your level - A clear focus point to work on after our session - Recorded session add-on so you can rewatch anytime - Custom training plan available so you improve even between sessions
I am based in Indonesia (GMT+7) - flexible scheduling for US, UK, Canada & Australia. Most sessions booked within 2-3 days.

FAQ
What is your rating?
I'm a FIDE Candidate Master (CM) with a peak FIDE rating of 2004 (FIDE ID: 7103000 — publicly verifiable). On Chess.com my peak rating is approximately 2450 (username: Dhammiko). The Candidate Master title is a permanent FIDE title — once earned, it never expires.
Have you taught kids?
Yes! Around 50% of my students are kids. My youngest student is 6 years old. I use a fun, patient approach that builds real chess fundamentals. One student, Bryan (age 8), gained +400 rating in just 3 months.
How do we schedule a session?
After ordering, I'll personally send you my booking link connected to Google Calendar. Pick a time that works for you. I'm based in Indonesia (WIB, UTC+7) but have slots available for US, UK, Canada and Australia clients.
What platform do we use for lessons?
I primarily use Zoom (premium) for calls and Chess.com for the board — the best combo for interactive lessons. Google Meet, Skype, or Discord also work. I'll send everything after confirming your schedule.
What level do i need to be?
No level required — complete beginners are welcome. I coach all levels from absolute beginners to 1800+ rated players. Not sure which package fits your level? Message me first and I'll guide you to the right one.
What happens after the session?
You'll receive a clear focus point to work on immediately. Standard package buyers get a recorded session to rewatch anytime. Premium buyers also get a custom training plan — so you improve even between our sessions.

My first lesson with Dhatuyo went very well! I haven’t been playing chess for very long, learning different concepts from the internet and trying to apply them to my own games. Dhatuyo taught me many new concepts that I haven’t seen before and gave me a plan for how to improve the fastest in the coming weeks with specific training goals and exercises!
