In just 5 and 1/2 days in February, 2022, I was beginning to transform almost roughly half a secondary school's children !

A Laboratory Technician & Former Senior Mathematics Teacher liked what I was doing - and noted I was the only teacher at the school she saw using my method !

The Head of Science wanted its success for her own children !
The Head of Physics wanted its success for his own children !

The school cleaners liked and agreed strongly with what I was doing !

Children kept clapping hands for me in different classes !

The most dangerous [ latent murderer ] boy, Will, was transformed by my 6th day !
His rebellious classmate, Jackson, was transformed by the 5th day !

From my 1st day to my 6th last day teaching at the school as a Supply Teacher, children kept calling out in the Playgrounds, " Hello, Mr ! "

That week I was helped by 72 million pastors & members of Christ Embassy praying from 6am for the children of the world and the Lord Jesus Christ answered miraculously our prayers.


92% Mathematics - By A Girl NOT In Top Sets - ca 7 Lessons ONLY !

In just 6 months of Home Tuition, 7 A, A, A, A, A, A & A* - BY A LOWEST SET Cardiff High School GCSE BOY !

100% SUCCESS - with zero rejection of learning - BY DYSLEXIC CHILDREN - Since 2016 !


ALL BECAUSE THE LORD JESUS CHRIST HAS BLESSED MY PEDAGOGICAL METHODS - Since 1985 !
Thanks to Him, He used me to bless many families - since I entered school teaching in 1992 !

EXPERIENCED TEACHER - I BEGAN TEACHING - OVER 35 YEARS AGO !

HOME - SCHOOL - UNIVERSITY - BUSINESS

7 A, A, A, A, A, A & A* - By Bottom Set GCSE Boy - In JUST 6 Months' Tuition - Cardiff Hign School !


How ?


* Since 1992, I have given my school and home classes ACTIVE LEARNING
rather than the popular PASSIVE LEARNING.


This lets students enjoy lessons and learn FASTER.


* I use special layouts of 2s, 3s and 4s
to aid the brain assimilate faster and easier.


* I use special serene colours and avoid negative colours that slow the brain's cognitive processes.


* I teach students which daily activities to avoid so that their brains go back to normal in 7 to 31 days - for many if they follow my advice fully.


* I show school & university students a FAR EASIER & MORE EFFICIENT JAMES WAY TO DO HOMEWORK !

.... so be more than ready and well prepared BEFORE THE EXAMS if you follow my simple, easy methodology fully properly !


All because in 1987, I decided to read the Holy Bible more - and my wife prays for my students !

The Lord Jesus Christ is the One Who has taught me to teach in EXCELLENT WAYS ! MANY Subjects !


It was not by my 3 universities. The best Teachers' Training College at the time , Sir Robert Black College Of Education, where I obtained a Certificate of Special Education trained in some ways like what God Almighty gave me through The Holy Bible.

If it had not been for the Lord Jesus, I would have been like all the other teachers - and would not have achieved dynamic top results for pupils who followed my methods fully properly.

I help kids and beginners go from 0 to tournament-ready using the Russian School of Chess.

I’m a Candidate Master in Chess (KMS) and reigning Astana U16 Champion. I’m 17 and currently studying at Nazarbayev University on a full state grant. I also scored IELTS 7.5 and placed 2nd in the National Philosophy Olympiad in English.

Hello everyone!

I am International Master Sanket, and I offer both training sessions and practice sessions for serious chess players looking to improve their game.

Teaching Methodology:

Step 1: Assessment

Before starting, I will ask you to send games from your last three tournaments.

During the first two classes, I will:

Analyze your games in detail
Identify recurring mistakes and weaknesses
Evaluate your strengths, style, and thought process
Create a personalized improvement plan

Step 2: Structured Improvement

Once the key weaknesses have been identified, future classes will focus on:

Positional understanding
Calculation and visualization
Decision-making
Middlegame planning
Practical tournament skills
Endgame fundamentals and technique

Step 3: Homework & Training

Students will receive carefully selected homework assignments designed to reinforce the concepts discussed during lessons.

The goal is not only to learn principles but also to apply them independently.

Step 4: Opening Preparation

I will provide opening files and repertoire guidance whenever necessary. However, I believe openings should support overall chess understanding rather than dominate training time.

For most students, improving calculation, strategic understanding, and practical decision-making yields much greater long-term results than memorizing opening variations.

Some of my achievements include:
1. Norway Open Blitz 2025 – Champion
2. 44th Indian National Team Chess Championship 2025 – Silver Medal
3. Asian Club Chess Champions League – Team Bronze Medal, Individual Silver Medal (Board 5)
4. 18th Plancoët International Open 2025 – Joint Champion (Runner-up on tiebreaks)
5. 2nd Orchies International Chess 2026 - Champion

I am currently pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science and Engineering at Jadavpur University.

Outside chess, I enjoy travelling, exploring new countries, and experiencing different cultures and adventures.
