I offer both online and face-to-face training. For online training we can use Discord, Skype or Zoom. The training is adapted to the needs of the student. During the lessons, we work together to identify the student's weaknesses and work specifically on them. I was first introduced to chess at the age of 5. At 17 I joined the Düsseldorf Chess Club and at 18 I headed a primary school chess club. I have a Chess.com online Rapid Rating of around 1650, which puts me in the top 2% of rapid chess players on Chess.com. I use a large part of my free time to improve my chess skills by working through books, solving problems, playing games, analyzing them extensively and exchanging ideas with other players.
