My 3 main chess skills are knowledge and strenght in opening, tactics and practical play all focused on practical chess.
Passionate about teaching chess, and always concerned that my student is really understanding and improving their level.
I teach how to work by yourself.

The training is proposed according to the needs of each student, but always includes the analysis of their games, the knowledge of the classics, the study of the finals and of tactical and strategic topics, always within a personalized plan and focus on Practical Chess.
I give to my students a daily and personalize schedule to work by themselfs.
My training system is mainly based on 3 things: opening, tactics and practical play.
First we define the opening that best suits the student and we delve into it, in this part, I can save you a lot of time indicating which parts you should focus on and what not.
Then we worked on the tactics and the practical game, which is the one that I have developed the most throughout my years of study and practice of chess.
I also give all the material that I consider necessary for them to work on depending on their available time.
