About Rogan-Joe
Hello, my name is Rogan-Joe Sloan. I am a New Zealander who loves chess. I make a living by editing chess videos, teaching chess, and engaging in other chess-related activities. My love for chess has been present since my youth, and I have not looked back since. My journey to seriously improve at chess began less than five years ago. I only gained the time and support to improve during my later high school years, so I have dedicated much of my recent life to improving and teaching this wonderful game. I hope to become strong enough to pursue master titles in the next few years. I love teaching chess because it’s a wonderful game that can take you far if you let it—it’s an investment in your mind. My general method of teaching is mostly based on the person I’m teaching. However, I like to ask questions such as, “Why was this your move as opposed to that?” or, “Why did we move here while we’re still focusing on this?” This approach gets people thinking about the answers, and it also gives me the information I need to plan the next point or lesson.

I have a 2000+ Elo rating in rapid chess on Chess com. While I’m no master, I can teach core concepts to any new player—you don’t need an Olympic sprinter to teach you how to walk. Here’s why I’m a good choice to help: I have a 2000+ rating in slower time controls, so I know what basic mistakes look like and can show how to choose better moves.
* I can take as much time as needed to teach these concepts.
*I can review games and explain why certain moves either work or don’t.
*I can deliver noticeable results relatively quickly by focusing on simple, effective changes.
1800 elo and below is where my teaching ability is best suited as, there is plenty of simple changes and thought processes that can be imparted.
Unless you are very clear with your skill level I will have to take a small amount of time to understand your level of chess, also having the knowledge that chess improvement takes some change, is good.
Alao PSA if you wish to teach your child chess, then under a certain age [5], there is little I can do outside of their normal ability, I can give you resourses and advice, but very young people are very tactile in learning.
