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.

About Me
Most of my life, I have been learning new sports and skills, such as violin. As such I've come to realize everyones understanding is unique and requires a new way to teach. I love this challenge as it truly goes to show the ability of a student and teacher to work together and not one sided. I actively play Baseball and Volleyball here in Maastricht and I intend keep learning all the wonderful things there are to learn.
