Learn from a FIDE Master and Certified instructor
As Chessodoro's chief coach, I bring both recent personal improvement experience and FIDE-certified teaching expertise. I jumped from 1944 to 2220 FIDE classical in just one year using the same dynamic approach I teach our students.
Currently I hold 2366 FIDE rating and I'm working towards the IM title, still competing in tournaments. I hold 2700+ rating on chess.com.
With 6 years of coaching experience, a FIDE Master title (2023), one IM norm, and my FIDE Instructor certification, I understand what it takes to improve quickly—and I've built Chessodoro to help students at every level achieve their goals through personalized training plans and structured coaching.
How we will improve faster together
At Chessodoro, we believe in learning through dynamic, mistake-rich positions. I teach students to embrace classical positions, expose themselves to understanding the chess fundamentals instead of relying on short term tricks.
Every week, we analyze your long time-control games (20+10, 30+20 on Lichess) to identify patterns and areas for improvement. Combined with Chessodoro's personalized training plans, you get both the accountability of coaching and the structure to improve independently between sessions.
Structured learning tailored to you
Whether you're a beginner learning fundamentals or an intermediate player (1400-1800 FIDE) looking to break through plateaus, I will adapt to your level. I specialize in chess dynamics, tactical play, calculation, and opening preparation.
My approach starts with building strong fundamentals to avoid knowledge gaps. So we will begin by creating a personalized training plan together. You'll follow this plan with full access to Chessodoro's platform to track your progress and stay on target.
