About me

I am a FIDE master who is passionate about the game and its intricacies.
As an 20-year-old living in İzmir, Turkey, I have established myself as a positive and hard-working individual with a deep affection for chess.
With love for teaching, I have mentored several successful students and helped them achieve their full potential.
As an accomplished chess player and avid learner, I am constantly seeking new challenges and opportunities to improve my skills both on and off the board.
Fluent in English and Turkish, I excel in providing personalized one-on-one lessons that help students achieve their goals.
