Chess is one of my top subjects! I have been playing chess all my life, and enjoyed studying it, and also teaching it! The more chess players we have in this world, the better.

Being a 19 year old, it's fairly difficult to summarize your tutoring experience. Though I am not a licensed tutor, I am highly qualified on the subject I tutor. I have taught friends, and family the game of chess, and am looking for more students. I'm laid back, patient, and willing to teach your kid the fundamentals of chess. I understand how to teach someone a subject that they may not be educated on, so feel free to let me help.

My comments on tutoring Chess : for fun

I am a Graphic Designer real life Experience - Corporate, Freelance, & Think Tank Experience. I have been working in Adobe since high school. I work in Adobe CS5.5, MAC/PC, Photoshop & Dreamweaver are currently my passion. I am very familiar with the Adobe Suite. I have some InDesign experience. I love well-designed, functional, pretty things that make you stop & think or chuckle or want to buy something. I love what design does for products, services, and life in general. We are surrounded by art all the time. Why shouldn’t it look awesome? I went to Texas State, through the Visual Communication Design program and learned the fundamentals of Design. They taught of the masters of graphic design and why they were important. There were classes in Art Direction, Typography, Art History, Printmaking, Photography, and Illustration just to name a small few core classes. It is a wonderfu ... read more

Austin Chess Teacher - Online and In-person Lessons

I'm a patient and experienced chess teacher with 8 years of experience teaching children and adults. My teaching approach is practical and fun. We look at the chess games that you've played, and I teach the fundamentals of chess strategy and tactics based on these games. I have more than twenty years of tournament experience, and I was awarded the title of First Category player by the United States Chess Federation, along with a rating of 2050 (Expert). I have tournament wins against master-level players rated as high as 2300. I give weekly one-hour lessons online and in-person. Due to the COVID-19 epidemic online lessons are preferable. We meet on a chess website while conversing over video chat.
Whether you prefer in-person or online lessons I will work with your schedule to meet your needs. The best way to improve is to regularly play rated games, analyze the games wit ... read more

I have been tutoring since 2006 and have covered a broad range of subjects during my time. My tutoring experience ranges from helping elementary students prepare for private school entrance exams to tutoring college students in math, english, economics, and history and everything in between. I have worked with students teaching them anything from algebra to calculus. I enjoy tutoring math the most but am very comfortable helping students write papers, or providing them critiques of their compositions. I wrote many papers during my time in college as a philosophy major and can help with fundamentals of writing as well as self-editing techniques.
My teaching style is to do whatever works, and to get it done. I pride myself on working with my students on their level and being able to understand their personal barrier to grasping the material. I am very conscious of not imposing ... read more
