Teaching Experience

"I have taught chess for four years and have successfully helped my students improve. For example, one of my best students, Efi Rosenborg, went from a 1500 rating to almost 2100 in just 6 months of working with me. I have also worked with several players from the US and some have even won over-the-board tournaments in the USCF rating system. I feel immense pride and joy in seeing my students make remarkable progress!

1 Lesson-50€  (1 hour)

Consultation:

As a coach, I wanna meet my students first and see if we can work with each other, so in 30 mins call we can discuss about our work together, what I offer and in details how it looks like. Understanding a style of a player mostly  matters so student will get inside from me about coaching plan and how improvement over time will look like!

First Lesson:

This is a test lesson, the key thing is to realize at what exactly in chess you are good, at what best, but also what are the things which are not going in the right way, I am here to help!

What do first lessons look like?

We will play two games. In the first game, you will play white, and I encourage you to stay relaxed. After finishing the first game, we will create a study to analyze it carefully, discussing any mistakes and how to correct them with the right decisions. In the second game, you will play as black. After this game, we can talk about your strengths in tactics/strategy/middlegame, and overall chess understanding to set up plans for the future.

10 Lessons:

As a professional coach, this gives me space to focus on students in a deeper way.

Here is what can you expect from me after purchasing 10 lessons:

  1. Lessons that are covered by additional homework, for example right after the lesson

    2. Whenever you need help after lessons related to your game, position, tournament preparation, and overall questions, you can ask a message through WhatsApp. 

   3. The student should not be shy and should be open to asking or recommending something where he feels he needs help. Coaching is successful when both sides have good communication. 

-How 10 lessons can look like: (Of course this can change based on the needs of the student) 

 1. Opening theory: (Reti, Sicilian Defence, French Defence, Kings Indian, different gambits, depending on your style of playing with strategy and tactical ideas)

2. Tactics: All checkmate motives are separated based on levels, specifical puzzles for your level

3. Principles in endgames: (King activity, why is it important? Key focus for specific once, Rook and Queen endgames, general principles)

4. Middlegame: From basic to advanced strategy, motives covered in games

5. Analyzing games and fixing mistakes (Showing you what should you play, Psychological factors, time control, personal advice/experience)

6. Identifying students' style of playing ( Positional or aggressive), and helping them find opening repertoire based on that.

7. Endgames technique ( Specific endgames explained and more seriously studied to increase your endgame knowledge and success.

8. Chessbase files: Aditional homework you can study after lessons to secure your knowledge in the long-term

9. Homework based on things we worked on to keep you in control of your improvement

10. Long-term plan for your improvement for students after three months of lessons
