Why choose my courses? An International Chess Master and experienced coach, I have been teaching for over 23 years to students of all ages and levels, from complete beginners to Candidate Masters. I have delivered nearly 18,000 hours of lessons and supported hundreds of students in their progress. My goal is not just to show you the best moves, but to teach you to better understand positions, to make better decisions, and to develop a true method of thinking. Every player is different: therefore I build a personalized training program based on your level, your goals and your learning style. Why are some players stagnating? Many work extremely hard: videos, online games, tactical exercises, analyses with an engine... However, their level remains stuck. The reason is often simple: they work a lot, but without a real method, and repeat the same mistakes without even realizing it. My role is to precisely target your weaknesses in order to help you progress faster and more effectively. A method tailored to your profile The first sessions allow us to analyze your games, your way of thinking, your strengths and your recurring mistakes. We then work on the essential areas: • Openings and game plans • tactics and calculation • strategy • finals • analysis of parts • preparation for competitions • Time management, self-confidence and mental preparation. I always prioritize understanding over rote learning in order to build solid and lasting progress. Concrete results Some examples: ➤ A 16-year-old student went from 1650 to 2000 Elo after about fifteen hours of lessons. ➤ A 23-year-old player went from 1600 to 2380 on Chess.com in 15-minute games after a year of lessons at a rate of 3 hours per week. ➤ A young player went from 1600 to 2000 FIDE Elo in two years and became Paris Champion in his category. ➤ An unrated student achieved a first FIDE rating of over 1950 Elo after a year of work. Of course, results always depend on each student's personal investment and consistency. Who are the courses for? I accompany: • children from 5 years old • teenagers • adult beginners • club players • the competitors • Chess.com and Lichess players wishing to take their game to the next level. Children's classes I have extensive experience with young players. My approach is tailored to their age: children progress through play, exercises and educational activities, while developing concentration, logic and self-confidence, in an approach where the joy of playing remains essential. Videoconference classes Online courses are very effective today. Thanks to screen sharing and digital tools, we can analyze your games, study positions and build a truly personalized training program. After each session, I will send you the important elements covered so that you can continue your training.
