Chess is one of my top subjects! I have competed in USCF chess tournaments since the age of 8. USCF Rating ~1900.
I have been playing club and tournament chess since the age of 8. I stopped playing at the age of 14 and have started playing again for ~6 months. I have won multiple National and State titles. I have competed in the World Open. I learned chess from a grandmaster. I have tutored/mentored many young students in chess. Many of my students have gone on to be very successful in tournament play. I am a 3rd year medical student who is dedicated to learning and teaching.
I teach using active learning whereby students will learn how to think critically. Chess theory, openings, strategies, etc. will all be covered. Lessons will be tailored to the skill of the student.
