About me
I was born in 1981 in Brazil. I am an FM and a teacher at a University. I love physics and Chess
Playing experience
I've played chess in many countries. I got my first IM norm just before I got married. Since then, I played fewer tournaments and dedicated more time to family and coaching chess.
Teaching experience
I've already coached many players in Brazil. Many of them have reached high levels and won OTB tournaments. I am coaching some players, and one of them is a lawyer. I've been coaching him for 11 years, and I use the Lichess Platform with him.
Other experiences
I have already taught chess in a Canadian School. I made students fall in love with chess there.
I am a professor in a postgraduate course at a university. And I teach chess there.

Best skills
I know the Sicilian Dragon very well. It is an incredible weapon! (So if you have an interest in the Dragon, this will be a plus.)
To achieve a high level in chess, it is necessary to understand endgames, middlegames and have a good opening repertoire. I can help you with all that. I love endgames as well.

Teaching methodology
I prepare lessons according to the student's chess level. I prefer to work on concepts of each part of the game: opening, middle game, and endgame.
I help students know themselves better and build a good opening repertoire.
I also give support at tournaments, preparing against opponents.
I am a fan of using famous games and my games as examples to explain different chess themes!
