My comments on tutoring Chess : Chess skill comes from much experience in both winning and losing games (obviously). Yet there ARE winning principles that are not generally known. This, then, is what I tutor -- how to mainly win when playing Chess. I have experience in playing Chess since 1949, and I love to teach winning principles to "new minds".
I have been teaching throughout my career, and students learn quickly because of my easy-going style. I have been vetted by WysAnt Tutoring Service. I am an experienced Public Speaker and Toastmaster.
