About Alec
Teaching chess to kids is my full time work. There is nothing else I would rather be doing! My club is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that helps children even if they cannot afford lessons. My goal is that anyone who wants the many benefits of chess will be able to receive them regardless of ability to pay.

I am a USCF certified chess coach with over 15 years experience teaching children of all ages. I am a firm believer that chess has many benefits that go far beyond the game itself... helping children reach their highest potential in life...whatever they may pursue. I know how to make chess fun to learn so that kids are motivated to give their best. I look forward to working with you soon!

Alec has been absolutely amazing teaching my son Chess. My son looks forward to classes with him and has advanced so much. Thank you for being a wonderfully caring and attentive teacher Alec!
My son loves attending Alec's weekly chess class. He's a patient and gentle teacher who gives each child his or her due. Jett learns something new each class by playing with both Alec and other students using different chess game variants and formats. I've also taken several private lessons with Alec which have helped me improve my chess skills in just a few short meetings. I highly recommend Alec to take your chess game to the next level!
Mr. Alec has been my chess instructor for 8 years. He has helped me develop different game strategies that I don’t just use for chess, but to be always two steps ahead of anything. He cares for his students a lot. He is an amazing instructor
He is a really good teacher. He is nice, kind and helps make me better. He also makes the lessons really fun.
Alec is our life saver! When COVID starts my son started chess classes online with Alec. on the first lesson they had great connection! Oree is waiting each week to meet Alec and learn so much from him. They become friends! And as much that I prefer classes in person i would keep this online class with Alec as long as my child learning and exploring chess.
Thank you Alec!!!Alec is a fantastic chess teacher. My 3 children have been attending his classes for the last 5 years. He is patient, kind, trustworthy, responsible and teaches and explains everything according to the child age and level of understanding.
Alec is a great teacher and person. He has taught my daughter for a few years now and I just started taking lessons myself. He is patient and thorough with his teaching as well as making it fun. My daughter and I look forward to the lessons every week and come away having enjoyed it while learning.
Alec is much more than a trustworthy teacher, he is also our absolute favorite chess teacher!! My son has had many. My son is very passionate about chess and we are so thankful that we have found Alec. Alec is also passionate about chess, knows the game very well, is able to explain it well to his students and is absolutely patient all throughout. He is very personable, attentive and caring. He even has live casual tournaments when he is in town, so his students can meet each other and see him live as well. My son loves these tournaments. As long as Alec teaches chess, we will never look for another chess teacher - like we have done in the past with other teachers. I can't think of a single negative thing to say about him. I wish all teachers could be as great.
Alec taught my children the gift of chess. While they did not take classes long, it is a lifelong skill that we still enjoy together as a family. They were exposed to chess by Alec at his chess club and then again with their wrestling organization. It is a usual skill for children from inner city areas to possess (in my opinion and experience) so it is always fun to watch them play. I am grateful for the scholarship that he provided to us many years ago. I hope Alec continues sharing his passion for chess with many people. Thank you Alec!
My two sons (now 8 and 11) have been taking lessons from Alec for almost 3 years. Alec is an extremely talented chess player, and he teaches chess in an understandable and fun way. The virtual setup for lessons is amazing to be able to show game play and assess past games, and allows Alec to host a weekly tournament with kids all the same ages. My sons love their lessons with Alec and being part of the community of other students who they look forward to seeing on Saturdays.
