About Mansoor

A SYSTEMATIC APPROACH TO CHESS MASTERY

Hi! I’m a competitive chess player with 5 years of coaching experience. I hold an official FIDE rating of 1858 and a peak Chess.com rating of 2307.

MY METHODOLOGY: "LEARNING HOW TO LEARN"

I specialize in teaching based on the principles of ‘Learning how to Learn’. I apply the science of meta-learning—specifically the DSSS framework (Deconstruct, Select, Sequence, Stakes) and the See-Do-Feedback model—to distill the game into its most high-impact components. This ensures you spend 100% of your study time on the materials that actually move the needle.

Whether you're making your first move or pushing for 2000+ on Chess.com, I will help you build a professional foundation and skip the rating plateaus.

WHAT I HELP YOU MASTER:

Advising how to learn.
Game Analysis.
Technique of calculating variations.
Endgame technique.
Evaluating a chess position.
Making a plan in a chess position.

About the lesson

  • All Levels
  • English

All languages in which the lesson is available :

English

The lessons are designed for beginners and intermediate players with a Chess.com rating below 2000.

LESSON TYPES

I offer standard one-time sessions, which include game analysis, positional evaluation, etc. (Recommended for most players) or structured roadmaps.

These roadmaps begin with a CORE INITIAL SESSION, followed by OPTIONAL FOLLOW-UPS tailored entirely to your pace. I recommend a two-week gap between follow-up sessions to allow for deep independent study—ensuring every follow-up is spent course-correcting your specific weaknesses.

A full roadmap of CURATED STUDY MATERIALS will be discussed in the initial session so that you can reach your goal with or without further follow-up sessions.

• FOUNDATION SPRINT (0–1000): 3-month roadmap focusing on blunders, basic tactics, strategy, and endgames.
• MASTERY ROADMAP (1000–2000): 1-year roadmap using Yusupov’s 9-book series as the core foundation.

Whether you are looking for a one-off session or a longer mentorship to reach a particular rating milestone, I am happy to tailor the sessions to your needs.

FLEXIBILITY & PRICING

• NO BULK PURCHASES: Pay-per-class only. You only pay for completed sessions.

If you are unsure whether the classes are right for you, I encourage you to take the free trial session before making any commitment.

FREE TRIAL SESSION

A full diagnostic class (~60 minutes) to help you decide. I will:
• Evaluate your recent games.
• Analyze key positions with you.
• Share the core roadmap of materials.
