About me
Hello, everyone! I'm Aleksandra Dimitrijevic—Woman Grandmaster, FIDE Trainer, Lead School Instructor, International Arbiter, and CEO of the FIDE Endorsed Queen Club Mitropa Chess Academy. Alongside my passion for chess, I thrive as a data analyst.
Playing experience
Starting my chess journey at the age of 2, I became a dedicated member of the Chess Club in May 1991. As a Woman Grandmaster with a peak FIDE Standard Rating of 2383 and a live rating of around 2435, I've proudly represented the Women's National Team in four Chess Olympiads, excelling on both the 1st and 2nd boards. My accolades include numerous European medals in Youth and Junior events, including being the Winner of the European Rapid Super Cup U18
Teaching experience
At just 16, I started my coaching journey, mentoring a student who became a FIDE Master. As a coach and captain, I've led the Women's team in two Chess Olympiads (2016, 2024), the mixed team in the Online Olympiad 2021, and the Open team in the Chess Olympiad 2022. I've also guided national teams and served as delegation chief in various European and World Youth Championships. My students boast numerous local, regional, national, and continental medals.
