Chess Coach & Strategy Mentor | For Kids & Beginners | Official FIDE 2001 Elo Rating & PedagogueTranslate this text using Google Translate.

Hello! I am an officially rated chess expert with an international FIDE Elo of 2001. Along with my chess background, I hold a Bachelor's Degree from the University of Athens (EKPA), specializing in Pedagogy and Psychology. My competitive career features high-level achievements, including a notable official tournament victory against Grandmaster Dimitris Alexakis and a 3-0 winning record against Grandmaster Felix Izeta Flores in online blitz matches. Reaching this standard requires rigorous analytical discipline and tactical focus—skills I transfer directly to my students to improve their calculation and mental resilience. I offer private chess lessons tailored specifically for children and beginners who want to learn the game or elevate their tactical thinking. My lessons comprehensively cover openings, endgames, and core tactical concepts, placing a heavy focus not just on raw calculation but on deep positional strategy. Using my academic background in Psychology, I focus on building a fun, supportive, and engaging learning environment. Please note that I am also a certified Classical Guitar teacher and an active music composer. If you or your child are interested, we can combine or arrange separate lessons for both Chess and Classical Guitar! Locations: At your place (Perama, Keratsini, Drapetsona, Piraeus) or online via webcam. Level: Beginners, Intermediate, and Players of all ages.

My name is Daniil, and chess has been a part of my life since I was 5 years old. Passionate about this fascinating game since childhood, I've played hundreds of competitions and won dozens of youth and adult tournaments. For the past 10 years, I have been sharing my passion for chess as a teacher in various settings: clubs, primary schools, secondary schools, private lessons, and associations. I also teach in English and Russian. Furthermore, I graduated from the Sorbonne with a Masters in international strategy and business intelligence. Some figures to know me better: • 10 years of experience in teaching chess • 20 years of experience in club and competition • Official 1900 FIDE / 2400 Elo rating on online platforms • More than 2,500 courses given to 1,000 students in group and individual lessons Whether you are a beginner or an experienced player, my lessons are designed to help you progress quickly while having fun playing. My method is based on solid teaching experience and relies on a comprehensive and structured approach, suitable for all levels. It is based on three main axes: 1. Learning the fundamentals: Learn or consolidate the essential principles in the opening, middlegame and endgames. 2. Tactics and strategy: develop your sense of the game with targeted, fun and practical exercises. 3. Analyze your games: Understand your mistakes, identify your strengths, and apply this knowledge in your games. My goal is to offer you a clear and complete vision of the game, to progress effectively and achieve your goals, whether it is to play for pleasure or in competition.

Structured Online Chess Coaching | Chess.com 2600 | Juniors and AdultsTranslate this text using Google Translate.

Improve your chess through a structured training programme built around your own games, goals and recurring mistakes. I work with ambitious juniors and adult players from beginner level to approximately 1900 online. Lessons can cover game analysis, calculation, candidate-move selection, tactical awareness, positional understanding, practical endgames, opening structures, time management and tournament preparation. Each lesson combines clear explanations with practical exercises. After the lesson, you receive annotated study material, targeted homework and a specific training objective for the following week. For junior students, I can also provide parents with regular written progress updates. Before the first lesson, please send me your current rating and two recent games so that I can prepare an individual assessment. Lessons are conducted online in English. I am a competitive chess player and experienced coach with a Chess.com rating of around 2600 in Blitz and Bullet and a German national rating, DWZ, of approximately 2100. I have almost two years of paid coaching experience. I have taught private students and worked in school chess, coaching children, teenagers and adults at different levels. Before moving to Germany, I maintained a regular private coaching practice in Ukraine. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Philosophy, which has shaped my analytical and structured teaching approach. I focus on helping students understand the reasoning behind their decisions rather than memorising moves without context. My feedback is calm, direct and adapted to the student’s level, goals and available training time. I teach in English and also speak Ukrainian, Russian and intermediate German. I am currently based in Germany and work with students internationally online.

Chess Lessons for Beginners and Intermediate Players – Learn Tactics, Strategy, Openings, Middlegames, Endgames, and Practical Game AnalysisTranslate this text using Google Translate.

Hello! I'm Stephenni, a passionate chess coach who believes that anyone can learn to play chess with the right guidance, patience, and encouragement. Chess is much more than a game—it's a powerful tool for developing critical thinking, concentration, creativity, problem-solving, decision-making, and self-discipline. I have experience coaching children, teenagers, and young adults, helping them improve their understanding of the game while building confidence at the board. Whether you're learning the rules for the first time, preparing for school competitions, or looking to strengthen your tactical and strategic skills, I'll design lessons that suit your current level and personal goals. My lessons are interactive, practical, and enjoyable. Rather than simply memorizing openings, you'll learn how to think like a chess player—how to recognize patterns, create plans, calculate variations, avoid common mistakes, and convert winning positions into victories. Every lesson includes guided practice, game analysis, tactical puzzles, and personalized feedback to help you improve steadily. I teach beginners, intermediate players, school students, and adults who want to discover or rediscover the beauty of chess. My aim is to make every lesson engaging, challenging, and rewarding while helping you become a more confident and well-rounded player. Whether your goal is to improve your rating, win tournaments, represent your school, or simply enjoy the game with family and friends, I'd be delighted to help you on your chess journey. Let's make every move count.

Learn Chess with a 3-Time Latvian Champion Among Girls! From Beginner to Tournament Player!Translate this text using Google Translate.

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!

We are incredibly grateful to have found Prashil through Apprentus. He has been tutoring our son Floris, who is currently in Grade 10 at the International School of Utrecht and follows the HL Maths curriculum. Floris is highly gifted but also has dyslexia, which presents unique challenges in his learning process. Prashil has proven to be the perfect match for him. He is calm, patient, and adapts his teaching style to Floris’s needs in a way that builds both understanding and confidence. Prashil’s structured and thoughtful approach has made a significant difference, and Floris truly enjoys their lessons. We highly recommend Prashil to anyone looking for a skilled and empathetic math tutor.

Fawzi is friendly with an approachable manner. He is quick to understand your level of French and what needs to be achieved. He explains French very well and makes you feel comfortable even if you are inexperienced and looks for the positives in your approach to learning. I am happy with our training schedule so far and I hope to develop and gain confidence in my pronunciation of French and speaking.

Madara is absolutely fantastic! An excellent tutor! She is very calm and explains things in a very simple and structured way. In addition, she is very nice and very patient. I booked 60 minutes for SPSS and was so happy with her that I booked additional classes. With just the first class I got more than what I expected!
