About Me: Hi, I'm Daniel! I have been playing chess for 6 years and I graduated from Lancaster University in Linguistics. I've played tournaments abroad in multiple countries such as Spain, Serbia and Thailand. I've won some tournaments and got also 2nd place in multiple opens. I'm 2000 FIDE and 2600 in online chess. I have drawn several grandmasters and beaten IMs and FMs too. Ever since I began chess, I have been constantly passionate about it every single day, and I have also always been eager to share my knowledge about it! I currently have multiple students ranging from 1000 to 1700 FIDE, and I'm open to teaching both kids and adults. I can either teach you the rules from scratch or train you to become a stronger tournament player if you already play competitively. I have a certificate as an ECU School Chess teacher that makes me qualified to teach chess to younger kids both one-on-one and in groups in schools. I will hopefully help you improve and understand the game fast :)  About the lesson: I can teach all levels from beginner to advanced, as well as all ages. I have fun learning and playing chess, and so I will also make the lessons a combination of learning and fun in a relaxed yet productive environment. If you're completely new to the game, I will teach you how to play it well and show you how amazing the game is. If you've already played some tournaments and you're more experienced, you can send me some tournament games before the lesson and I will analyse key positions with you and improve your ability to evaluate positions and your critical thinking skills. We will use the website lichess to analyse positions from games and can call on Microsoft Teams or Zoom. Once I understand where your strengths and weaknesses lie, I will devise a strategy to help you improve in the best possible way, whether that be with your openings, middlegames or endgames. I am good at openings, so I love to look at opening theory but it is also important to keep your tactics sharp and play endgames well. At the same time, the lessons will be interesting and fun! Lessons would be 60 minutes long, and my schedule will be flexible according to whatever is most convenient for you.
