Hi, my name is Gabriel. I'm the head coach of the chess team of the National University of Mexico (UNAM) since 2010. I speak fluent English as I lived six years in Oxford, England, when I was a child and I practice it since then.

With the UNAM's team I have obtained the following titles:
National Women's Championship: 2014, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019
National Men's Championship: 2018, 2019
Absolute National Championship: 2018, 2019
Panamerican 2013 in Durango: silver medal

I also have extensive experience with players of all ages and levels. Here is a list of the places where I have worked:
- UNAM's Children's Chess Program since 2012.
- Private schools.
- CEDAT School for gifted children.
- Private sports and social clubs.
- Homeschoolers
- Personal chess coach since 2005.

My peak rating is 2165 FIDE ELO, which would be equivalent to the USCF National Master level, although really my chess dedication has been focused on teaching.
I would love to help you learn chess or improve your game to reach competitive levels. It does not matter your degree of experience, your level of play, or your age.

I am attentive to any questions you may have.
Greeting and I wish you success!

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.

Prices :

• Online videoconference lessons: €70/hour

• Home lessons: €90/hour

The first half hour is offered free of charge to offset the site registration fees.

They trusted me

More than 200 students have shared their experience through their reviews on SuperProf.

These testimonials reflect the quality of the courses, the progress made, and the working atmosphere I wish to establish with each student.

Your progress starts today

Choosing a teacher is not just about choosing a level of play.
It means choosing a method, a teaching approach, and support that will allow you to make lasting progress.

Feel free to contact me. I usually reply very quickly and we can arrange an initial session as soon as possible.

This is already the first step in your progress.

Why is pelvic mobility important?
🔆Pelvic mobility is essential to meet the simplest daily functional needs such as walking or climbing stairs. The pelvis is the center of gravity and the largest bone complex in the human body. It is an insertion point for strong muscles: they form the muscular chains that have the pelvis as an anchor point.
The shortening or overtraining of some of them, due to sports postures or gestures, can generate an imbalance in the tensegrity system of the pelvic girdle and many local and adjacent problems, from muscle decompensations, pain, health problems at a visceral level and many others. aspects that are not taken into account 🧐
✅You have to ensure that your pelvis is in a neutral position, aligned at all times and in any activity you do so that your body does not adopt wrong postures by default and avoid having problems with its mobility and consequently other derived dysfunctions, such as hernias, lower back pain. , pelvic floor problems, etc.
📌The program aims to strengthen, stretch and put into tension the muscle chains and the analytical work of the abductor, adductor, extensor and pelvitrochanter complex. All of these myofascial elements determine the pelvic position and, in doing so, create or limit the freedom of the pelvis, having repercussions on the lower and upper limbs.
🤗 Of course we are not going to leave aside the rest of the body❗️❗️😅
The training approach will be individualized, after a general and analytical body evaluation.
Enough of so many aches and pains, release the superficial and deep fascia and revitalize your energy center. 🥰

Chess is easy to learn and a lifetime to master- let's skip ahead. Whether you've never moved a pawn or you're chasing your next rating jump, these lessons sharpen the way you think, not just the way you play.

We'll work on the tactics that win games, the patterns grandmasters see instantly, and the quiet positional ideas that decide the rest. Your games become the textbook — every loss is a lesson, every win a clue.

Online or in person. Bring a board, or just your curiosity.

Hello and welcome! My name is Ramona, and I've been playing chess since I was 8 years old. Over the years, I became a 3-time Latvian Champion among girls in the U14, U16, and U18 age categories and had the honor of representing Latvia in numerous European and World Chess Championships!

Today, I enjoy sharing that experience with students of all ages and levels. Whether you're learning the rules, preparing for your first tournament, or looking to strengthen your tactical and strategic understanding, I'll adapt each lesson to your individual goals and make it fun! I truly believe that you should enjoy the process and the game to get good at it!

I am patient, encouraging, and like to have highly interactive chess lessons. I believe that real improvement comes from understanding why moves work, not simply memorizing opening lines. Every lesson is tailored to the student, helping build confidence while making chess enjoyable.

A typical lesson may include:

✅️ Puzzles as a warm-up
✅️ Analysis of your own games to identify strengths and areas for improvement
✅️ Practical examples of strategy explained
✅️ Personalized exercises and advice based on your current level

I have experience teaching both in schools and online, primarily working with children, but all ages are welcome. Lessons are available in English and Latvian.

Whether you're taking your first steps in chess or aiming to reach the next rating milestone, I'd be happy to help you develop your skills and enjoy the game even more!
