About Blair

With 12 years of experience in chess instruction, I offer tailored lessons designed to help students of all ages improve their skills and achieve their chess goals. My teaching approach combines strategic thinking with practical application, focusing on key areas such as strategy, tactics, and openings. Each lesson is customized to meet the individual needs of my students, whether they are beginners learning the basics or advanced players looking to refine their techniques. My goal is to create a supportive and challenging learning environment that fosters growth and encourages a deeper understanding of the game.

In my lessons, I emphasize the importance of strategic planning and tactical execution, helping students develop a strong foundation in these critical aspects of chess. By exploring various openings and their strategic implications, students gain insights into effective play and decision-making. I also focus on improving problem-solving skills and pattern recognition through engaging exercises and real-game scenarios. This comprehensive approach ensures that students not only enhance their game but also gain confidence in their abilities.

Outside of teaching, I am deeply passionate about chess and continually seek to expand my knowledge of the game. I enjoy participating in chess tournaments and studying classic games to stay current with evolving strategies and trends. My enthusiasm for chess extends to other intellectual pursuits, such as solving complex puzzles and exploring new strategies. These hobbies keep me engaged with the game and inspire my teaching, allowing me to bring fresh perspectives and insights to my students.
