Chess strategy, tactics, thinking and psychological traits

Greetings! I am a chess coach at the Uxbridge Chess Club in West London and I currently coach kids and teenagers who are looking into improving their game skills. With an ECF ELO score of 1800, I particularly enjoy going through the strategy and tactics surrounding chess, as well as the psychology of the player, which is often deemed to play a crucial role in the outcome of a game.

When coaching, I always employ a player-focused strategy. Indeed, I believe that the most efficient way to learn is by letting the individual discover their strengths and potential.

About Me

I am Ovidiu "Ovi", I was born in Romania, grew up in Italy and obtained my BSc in Environmental Sciences at Brunel University London. Throughout my academic years, I helped different researchers with their duties, both in the literature and in the laboratory.

Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and data science were a big part of my studies and the roles I had. At TfL, I currently work in a variety of GIS-based teams who make efforts to maintain and improve the transport network within Greater London. This is demonstrating to be excellent experience, which is enriched by the great people within the organisation.

Alongside my main role, I have some connections with academics at The London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) and the University of Zambia, with whom I carry out health-based scientific research on Africa.

I enjoy travelling, reading and playing chess, both casually and professionally. Feel free to contact me for a chat!

✅DEEPEN YOUR INTIMATE SELF-KNOWLEDGE, YOUR SEXUAL DESIRES & OVERCOME YOUR BLOCKAGES
► Learn to know your intimate and sexual desires, deepen them, assume them and perceive their meaning, while being aware of your own limits and those of your partner, understand your blockages in order to overcome them, take advantage of the approach socio-cognitive of sexual desire, better integrate the functioning of one's partner, integrate tools / techniques / methods / know-how / key phrases to take pleasure while leaving it to spontaneity & naturalness, improve the link between affectivity and sexual intimacy but also communication with your partner, play (...): these are examples of the objectives of these personalized sessions, in order to ultimately improve your intimate and sexual satisfaction, accompanied by a mediator specialized. ➤ Together, step by step, it's about getting to know each other better (through your past experience, what you like or appreciate the least about yourself / about the other), by analyzing situations in a thorough and pragmatic way. Indeed, this step is essential in order not to orient towards / "tackle" a pre-established model, but to adapt to each situation. ➤ In parallel, from the first session, once the key points are better understood / assimilated, and the objectives gradually defined, tackle, based on your daily life / your experience, the art of sexuality and its subtleties, while valuing the complexity of sexuality and not its complications. ► My mission: to help you understand, analyze, discover and discover yourself to better enjoy yourself, while gaining self-confidence & acting in order to no longer be limited by your beliefs. ➤ If the discretion and confidentiality of the coach are essential, it is therefore a question of offering a tailor-made program / training, following an initial 'diagnosis'. ► These sessions can, for example, deal with how to regain confidence and make you reconnect with a complex but not complicated, subtle but not tangled sexuality, in short fulfilled while understanding the key elements of your own psychology and that of your partner (... ). But also how to strengthen your sexual charisma to unlock your potential and take pleasure. ➤ Objective here again: to introduce concrete techniques / methods which make it possible to communicate easily, in a fluid, efficient and always natural way, while mastering situations. ➤ Non-verbal language, sexualization and avoidance of the friend zone (...): the objective being to demystify these themes in theory and in practice. ➤ Coaching is based on precise questioning techniques, helping the person being supported to find a solution to a problem. At the end of each session, the coachee will master new ways of thinking, actions to accomplish and will have better motivation. Depending on the clients' expectations, the coach can suggest other approaches. ➤ So what do the first individual coaching sessions look like? First, a first exploratory contact during which your expectations are examined, the nature of the request and the context are evaluated, a 'diagnosis' is discussed, taking into account your difficulties, your needs, your objective. Then, it is a question of developing a precise procedure and proposing lines of work. A relationship of trust is gradually established through a benevolent alchemy, where listening, empathy and the absence of judgment are central. ➤ Thus, after having carried out together an initial assessment of the situation, a kind of inventory, it is a question of determining the objectives to be reached, the feelings and the questions related to the situation as well as proposing actions to achieve your goal, resolve constraining situations that stand in your way, using tools that will be offered to you according to your situation to get out of your comfort zone and change your perspective. ➤ The guide then asks questions aimed at exploring solutions aimed at achieving the objective, through experiments and exercises. Through various tools (drawing, role playing, metaphor, visualization, etc.), this questioning helps to change perspective, get out of an impasse in order to explore various options that you might not have thought of. this way, based on tools and experience. For example, it could be a new way of thinking about difficulties or another approach to identifying and considering resolving conflicts or a progression in terms of personal development or in terms of a career focusing always on the development of personal resources and self-knowledge. At the start of the next meeting, the coachee begins with a summary of the activations and the evolution of the state from the last meeting. This step makes it possible to have an evaluation of the positive points and those which are less so in order to readjust the set strategy. ➤ Concretely, ONE SESSION = SOLUTIONS / proposals / concrete suggestions to put into practice for the next session in order to overcome blockages or improve self-knowledge. Note that during the videoconference session, all the notes are transcribed in the chat so that you can access them at any time when you wish. THE COACH Trained at the Grande Ecole post-preparatory classes & Ivy League University in the United States, our teacher trainer has specialized and worked for more than 18 years, in Europe and North America, in the field, in renowned international public and private establishments, regularly participating in forums and conferences, and also offering personalized INDIVIDUAL support, with pedagogy and careful methodology as key words, all anchored in a peaceful moment. ➤ PLACE, TIMETABLE, PRICES ✓ Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Fribourg-Zurich-Neuchâtel-Lugano-Montreux-Basel-Neuchâtel-Bern-Lucerne-Brussels-Luxembourg-Paris-Lyon.

Olivier
International Master (elo>2400) and Trainer for 21 years
★ Courses from 5 years old! ★ Discount for webcam lessons! Do you often wonder why you can't progress? Because you are looking left and right for information, advice and books to read but you are getting scattered. You constantly watch chess videos on the Internet which are entertaining but it is too passive an activity which does not really make you study chess in depth. Then, you will play online games at too fast a pace while you do not master the main general principles. You thus develop bad reflexes because you constantly repeat the same mistakes without even realizing it, which causes your level to quickly stagnate. Then, you make a game report which tells you that you played with 80% accuracy but nevertheless you lost and you do not necessarily understand the main reasons. And finally, you watch the game with an analysis module which offers you good moves but does not provide you with the explanations necessary to fully understand them. Some teachers also offer group lessons with a monthly subscription which can help you progress slightly, but what you need is a truly personalized lesson. Taking private lessons will save you a lot of time because I know the methods that work to progress and quickly be more competitive. I will teach you the essential concepts to master to better understand chess overall and I can recommend interesting books to study alongside classes. I have always liked to pass on my knowledge to my students so that they can give the best of themselves. This is why, over the years, I have improved my teaching techniques and I have created a real training program in order to best help my students unlock their potential. It is important to understand that good progress is a subtle balance between playing and studying. Whether you want to compete for fun or to win titles, whether you want to beat your friends or simply discover the complexity of the game of chess: this announcement is made for you! ★ I would like to reassure “beginners” who are sometimes a little “ashamed” of their level by telling them that I have many beginner students! ★ Recent examples: ➤ September 2018, a 16-year-old student takes 1.5 hours of lessons per week to improve in competition. It goes from 1650 to 2000 in around fifteen hours of lessons! ➤ November 2019, I have 2 new students (29 and 30 years old) who are 1200 on Chesscom. One decides to take 3 hours of lessons per week and the other 4 hours. 1 year later, there are 2000 of them on the same site! ➤ September 2021, a 35-year-old student returns to chess competitions after a 20-year hiatus. With 1 hour of lessons per week, it goes from 1350 to 1650 after only 10 hours of lessons! ➤ September 2021, a 23-year-old student decides to take 3 hours of lessons per week at 1600 on Chesscom. After a year of lessons he reached 2380 in 15 minute games! ➤ July 2022, a 30-year-old student decides to take 2 hours of lessons per week, he is then 800 on Chesscom. Barely 6 months later, it is 1450 on the same site! ➤ December 2023, one of my young students went from 1600 to 2000 FIDE elo in 2 years of lessons and became Paris Champion in his age category! ★ If you still have hesitations, I have more than 200 reviews left by my students at the bottom of the ad. You can read some of them, this will allow you to get a better idea of the quality of the courses and the good atmosphere that reigns there. In order for the lessons to be effective, the secret is regularity, that is to say doing at least 1 hour of lessons per week. ★ ★ Mini group lessons (2 to 4 people): ➤ If you don't want to take lessons alone because you've never taken one. ➤ If you want to work on common themes with your friends who have a similar level to yours. ➤ If you want your teenagers to do something more interesting than spending their days in front of their tablets. ➤ Or if you simply want quality courses at a preferential price. This offer might interest you! Prices are specified at the very bottom of the ad. ★ ★ Individual lessons for adults and experienced children: I offer quality lessons with a real methodology! ★ Progress of the first lessons: Whether you're competing or playing online, we'll analyze your games over a few sessions. This will allow me to assess your knowledge, thought process, strengths and typical mistakes in order to together define a training program for the upcoming sessions. For this program to be viable I will take into account your level, your ambitions but also the time you can devote to playing and studying. ★ And for the following courses: ➤ A complete and effective repertoire of openings (created with the latest software), adapted to your style and your level. Examples: London System, Viennese, Scottish, Tarrash, Sicilian c3, Alekhine, Modern, Philidor, Scandinavian, Caro-Kann, Slavic, East Indian Defense, Petrov... This repertoire is not based on opening traps but on understanding each move played. This will allow you to play good moves without learning tons of variations by heart! My goal is not to make you learn tons of lines that are never played to you! I would like to point out that the lines have been worked very seriously, so you will be able to play them throughout your progress. You will therefore not spend your life re-examining openings whether with white or black. I would like to point out that I show absolutely everything I know! ➤ Learn to build a plan in the middle of the game through the study of the games of world champions and their contemporaries. In this sense, I created a base of 300 classic games to know. The goal is to show you a multitude of different patterns so that you have sufficient chess knowledge to be able to play all types of positions well. You will thus develop automatisms and a certain sense of the game which will help you in your games! ➤ A multitude of tactical exercises to be able to gain a decisive advantage during your games. ➤ And of course the study of elementary checkmates and essential endgames in order to master the endgames. So, I created a base of 66 elementary pawn endings to know. This whole methodology aims to make you a complete player. ★★ Courses for beginner children (from 5 years old): I have a lot of students between 5 and 15 years old who are beginners, it's really an audience I'm used to working with! It is essential that children have fun, which is why my approach is above all fun! Each child is different, I always adapt my teaching according to their age, their desires and their level. I play with them to teach them to think while they play. Chess really works on concentration (which is good for school!). I teach them to understand the opponent's moves in order to be able to counter them. I make them a small repertoire of openings and I teach them the typical traps of their favorite openings. For the rest, I give them simple exercises to start with, then I progress at the student's pace so that they learn the different rules and techniques while having fun! My lessons boil down to this: good humor and efficiency! ★ Webcam lessons: I use the free Discord software to communicate via video with my student and share my screen. I have a good quality webcam as well as a Razer Seiren Mini microphone which are perfect for good lesson transcription. You will see that Webcam lessons are just as effective as home lessons! I download your played games from the Internet and then we analyze them via ChessBase. Thanks to this software, I have access to all my lessons, so I can present classic games to you as well as openings that I have already analyzed beforehand. I can also show plans using colored arrows, highlight threats, important squares to control or show a weakened pawn structure. It also contains a database of 12 million games which I use to illustrate my explanations with famous games. At the end of each lesson, I send my lessons by email so that you can review the points worked together! ★ Hours: - Monday to Friday from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. - Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. ★ Do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions because I am very responsive on Apprentus (around 1 hour). We will therefore be able to organize a first course quickly. See you soon ! ★ Details: ★ I am a self-employed person and declared a personal service provider (SAP) So whether or not you pay taxes, the state will reimburse you for half of all tuition for the year! This is why there is a reduction for people who take webcam lessons because they cannot benefit from the tax credit (I can't help it, it's the law!). My Auto-Entreprise is approved by the National Quality Charter for its seriousness and its desire to constantly improve its services. ★ Payments are made through Apprentus: I will send you the course proposal at the end of the week for the following week and all you have to do is validate it. Then at the beginning of the month, I send you an invoice by email with all the courses paid for the previous month.

Neuropsychological stimulation and rehabilitation for adults
Dealing with cognitive challenges? Looking for a friendly expert to guide you? Do not look any further! I specialize in psychological consulting services designed exclusively for you. Cognitive stimulation and rehabilitation in young adults is essential to enhance and maintain optimal brain performance. Some key ideas that summarize its importance: Continuous Development: Cognitive rehabilitation allows for continued development of the brain, strengthening cognitive skills and promoting stronger mental performance. Adaptation to Challenges: Facing cognitive challenges strengthens the brain's ability to adapt and respond effectively to complex situations in daily life and work. Prevention of Future Problems: Cognitive stimulation can help prevent future cognitive problems and reduce the risk of cognitive decline associated with aging. Improved Academic and Work Performance: Strengthening cognition contributes to better academic and work performance, since skills such as memory, concentration and problem solving are optimized. Emotional Well-being: Cognitive health is linked to emotional well-being. Cognitive rehabilitation can improve stress management, decision making, and emotional regulation. Promoting Autonomy: Strengthening cognitive skills allows young adults to be more autonomous, making informed decisions and facing challenges independently. Innovation and Creativity: Cognitive stimulation encourages innovation and creativity by boosting the brain's ability to think flexibly and generate new ideas. Development of Social Skills: Improving cognition also benefits social skills, facilitating more effective communication and strengthening interpersonal relationships. As a professor in Psychology, my career includes extensive experience in the design and guidance of neuropsychological evaluation, stimulation and rehabilitation processes focused on adults. In this course, I offer you a personalized cognitive stimulation and rehabilitation program that will be designed in a custom way. The program is based on the use of specialized tools for those people who wish to improve their cognitive skills, such as attention, memory, language and executive functions. It is aimed at those who have experienced brain injuries with sequelae (head trauma, stroke or degenerative diseases), those who face temporary dysfunctions that affect their usual cognitive functioning and those adults who prioritize comprehensive development and quality of life.

Chess class for beginners: Understand the basic principles, learn how to analyse the chessboard and build a strong foundation as a chess player
Chess 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.

SOCIOLOGY / PSYCHOLOGY / ENGLISH LITERATURE LESSONS AND EXAM PREPERATION FOR GCSE AND A LEVEL STUDENTS
Welcome to my lessons for tutoring! In my classes, I emphasise knowledge analysis and improvement across English Literature / Sociology / Psychology. My method emphasises personalised guidance that is tailored to the needs of each student. I assist with teaching the appropriate content and exam strategies that students need to get the best grades possible. In Sociology, I do exam practice and go over topics. Sociology is the study of human social life and you can expect to cover topics such as work, families, gender roles, multiculturalism, media and culture and globalisation. During my lessons, I will elaborate on these topics and allow you to understand and feel confident within this subject. In Psychology, I will teach students key theories and behaviours of humans. During my lessons I will compare psychological theories to real life durations and I will explain this in a deeper level to help students. In English literature, through a more in-depth analysis of context, I help students become more proficient writers, which helps them feel more comfortable with the topic. I like to give tasks to my students after class to make sure they feel secure and fully comprehend what they are learning. My intention is for my pupils to feel enthusiastic and confident about studying these subjects both during and after my classes, since this will benefit them both academically and in real-world scenarios. I'm hoping you'll come along for a supportive experience with me!

✅HOW TO MANAGE YOUR STRESS, YOUR ANXIETY, YOUR ANXIETY & YOUR EMOTIONS (BY A PSYCHOPRACTITION COACH PSYCHOANALYST)
Stress is, in biology, the set of reactions of an organism subjected to pressures or constraints of the environment. Anxiety is a mental and physical malaise, born from the feeling of the imminence of a danger, characterized by a diffuse fear which can go as far as panic. While anxiety is a one-time emotion & often occurs as a fit, whereas anxiety can be more chronic in nature. All three are not necessarily signs of weakness and without being a choice, they affect many people to varying intensities.
