Chess Coaching Experience (Detailed) 1. Coaching Experience Overview Over the past 15 years, I have worked as a professional chess coach, training students ranging from complete beginners to advanced tournament players. My teaching methodology is grounded in a strong understanding of chess principles, practical play, and modern training tools such as Lichess, ChessBase, Chess.com, and Stockfish/NNUE engines. I focus on improving all phases of the game: opening preparation, middlegame strategy, and endgame technique. 2. Levels and Age Groups Taught Beginners (U-1000): Introduced students to the rules, piece movement, and basic tactics like forks, pins, and skewers. Emphasis on development, king safety, and avoiding early mistakes. Intermediate (1000–1400): Focused on opening repertoire building, calculation skills, positional understanding, and recognizing tactical patterns. Advanced (1400–1600+): Coached rated players in tournament preparation, endgame mastery, advanced opening systems, and psychological resilience during games. Age Range: Successfully coached students from age 5 to 60+, adapting teaching methods to suit age, language, and learning styles. 3. Notable Student Achievements Helped several students gain their first FIDE rating and cross key rating barriers (e.g., 1200, 1500, 1800). Coached multiple state- and district-level champions. Supported students in achieving board prizes at school and inter-club team events. Guided adult students in improving their online blitz/rapid ratings significantly (200–400+ points).
