"Mens Sana in Corpore Sano" - a healthy lifestyle!
My three main areas of expertise (not necessarily in this order):
- Chess: I teach chess to beginners and intermediate players up to ELO 1800 or ECF 1700, working on the tactical and strategic aspects of openings, middle games and endgames.. "chess is life in miniature"!
- Fitness / Running / Triathlon: I coach people who want to get fitter and generally incorporate any endurance activity into a health(ier) lifestyle. I am a dedicated coach who has competed in several marathons and Ironman races (also qualified for the Ironman World Championship). I focus on nutrition, stress and sleep as well for a holistic approach.
- Languages: I specialize in tutoring Italian and Spanish; my style is to keep students challenged and motivated through simple classes and practical exercises (pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary).. I'm a demanding teacher but will guide you in a fun and interactive way.
Please contact me if you have any interest in spending more time and energy in any of these 3 areas, and don't forget that "Mens Sana in Corpore Sano" is a good approach to look after yourself :)

About Me

Italian lessons. Italian lessons online or in person.- I'm a professional Italian teacher from Italy, now living in Rome. I have 10 years teaching experience. I am very patient and I love to make a relaxed and friendly class environment. I have qualifications and experience teaching at different levels and in different contexts. I can help the student to improve the oral, written, and comprehension skills. Most important is that each course is based on the needs, interests and availability of the student.
- The method is mainly what is called communicative, aimed at stimulating the student to speak immediately and put the focus on the functional aspect of the language. For beginners, I usually follow a specific program, I prepare a course and for each lesson I send students the files that I scan from the various books. Also the lessons can be essentially developed as conversations on specific subjects.

Chess class for beginners: Understand the basic principles, learn how to analyse the chessboard and build a strong foundation as a chess playerChess is a fun game that starts with the basic rules and moves through the 3 parts of the game: the opening, the middlegame, and the endgame.
The focus at first is to teach you how the pieces move, what the goal of the opening is, and how the pieces interact. You will also learn the vocabulary related to chess and chess notation.
Tactics are then explored to take advantage of hanging pieces, lack of king safety, space, and tempo. From here depending on what your personal goals are we will adapt the classes to cover what will help you progress.
I can also give group classes, contact me if you have a group, we can discuss how to best organise those classes and pricing.

Chess: professional training, all levels, any age. Reach your goals!Hi, my name is Gabriel. I'm the head coach of the chess team of the National University of Mexico (UNAM) since 2010. I speak fluent English as I lived six years in Oxford, England, when I was a child and I practice it since then.
With the UNAM's team I have obtained the following titles:
National Women's Championship: 2014, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019
National Men's Championship: 2018, 2019
Absolute National Championship: 2018, 2019
Panamerican 2013 in Durango: silver medal
I also have extensive experience with players of all ages and levels. Here is a list of the places where I have worked:
- UNAM's Children's Chess Program since 2012.
- Private schools.
- CEDAT School for gifted children.
- Private sports and social clubs.
- Homeschoolers
- Personal chess coach since 2005.
My peak rating is 2165 FIDE ELO, which would be equivalent to the USCF National Master level, although really my chess dedication has been focused on teaching.
I would love to help you learn chess or improve your game to reach competitive levels. It does not matter your degree of experience, your level of play, or your age.
I am attentive to any questions you may have.
Greeting and I wish you success!
Giorgia
Italian language lessons from a native speaker - any levelHello everyone!
I'm Giorgia and I come from Torino, Italy.
I offer my native knowledge of Italian to any of you, who wants to discover this beautiful language.
I teach for all levels, from very beginners to advanced speakers, passing through amateurs or simply curious of any age. I can also help with university exams and school works/assignments.
Being a pianist and a piano teacher, I already have lots of experience with teaching and pedagogical approach with the whole range of ages.
The lesson is intended to meet the student needs: the focus can be on the grammar, conversation or literature. In case of a middle-level speaker, the lesson will cover all four language's abilities: listening, speaking, writing and reading. My suggestion of a well planned lesson is, for any level, to divide it into two parts: grammar first and then conversation (covering all the abilities mentioned above).
Thank you for your attention and looking forward to meeting you !!
Gaurav
Yoga & Meditation with an International Certified Teacher!Yoga is a way of life! All you have to do is set aside some time and leave the rest to me. The process will make you feel better. You will enjoy this journey:)
Yoga is much more than what we see on social media ;)
Yoga was first referenced in the ancient sacred Rig Ved literature. Yoga = Yuj/Yoke/unite-union-joining (with the divine wisdom of the universe). Yoga, according to yoga sutra philosophy, is concentration. It is a holistic science based on yoga philosophy. It encompasses the whole person: body, mind, intellect, and consciousness.
We will concentrate on your personalized approach!! Especially for you! You will have my whole attention. Bring back the ability to breathe, relax, and regenerate while performing some amazing asanas, kriya, mudra, and pranayama. There are many more. After the practice, you will feel revitalized. Consider it. These sensations are positive and will carry over into your daily lives.
Take a deep breath and don't think too hard. Schedule a session and enjoy the ride!
I teach overseas, in addition to business organizations and individual customers.
Aside from Hatha, Ashtanga, Vinyasa, Himalayan, and Iyengar yoga, I understand you and work accordingly.
So, let's see you on the mat.
NAMASTE
