Teaching experience

I am teaching chess actively for 5 years. 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 many players from the US, and some have even won over-the-board tournaments in the USCF rating system.

Other experiences

I am creating video chess courses and chess lessons.

Best skills

Strong Opening ideas and novelties. Great endgame player.

Teaching methodology

Lesson 1: Analyze two games played against students as white and black, focusing on identifying mistakes, missing tactics, making strategic decisions, and assessing tactical calculations. See if there are better alternatives.

Lessons 2 and 3: Begin to work with students on the fundamentals of openings. Identify the student's style, suggest an appropriate opening, and explain the strategy behind the move.

Lessons 4 and 5: Further explore the opening with strategic suggestions and explain the general principles behind them.

Lessons 6 and 7: Introduce the basics of strategy, starting with simple positions that require the student to recognize the strategic idea within 1-3 moves, and working up to more complex positions that require 3-5 moves. Assess the student's level to determine the difficulty of the exercises.

Lesson 8: Every 7-8 lessons I analyze student games and follow improvement over these lessons, trying to identify things I did not before so we can compensate for missing stuff from before, which is very important for long-term improvement.

Lesson 9: Beginning of the endgame stuff: General discussion about endgames, going through examples and reviewing them.

Lesson 10: Playing with the students again but this time analyzing things deeper because we already had some experience working together so we can share our thoughts during games and discuss things we already worked on.

Between Lessons: You will get specific material that is up to your free material strategy to manage to work on chess, tactical material strategy and opening stuff, and general advice which I create in meantime between our lessons.

Whether you want to beat your neighbor or achieve a master's level, I'm here to help. Message me any time to get started. I look forward to helping you become a better player!
