14+ Years Chess Experience • FIDE Rated Player

Due to my extensive chess playing experience of 7 years, I have managed to reach and exceed high school chess skills and understanding through high school clubs, ESF (English School Foundation) competitions, Grand Master chess players' books, and thousands of hours of online chess competitions (resulting in an improved FIDE rating) as well as tutoring centres such as UK Metrotown Academy.

My journey has equipped me with deep insights into chess strategy, tactics, and the mental discipline required to excel both in chess and academics. I bring this wealth of experience to every lesson, helping students develop not just chess skills, but critical thinking abilities that benefit all areas of their education.
