About Niko
I am a dedicated tutor with over 6 years of experience teaching chess to students of all levels—from curious beginners to advanced, competitive players. Throughout my tutoring journey, I’ve had the privilege of working with around 200 students, each with their own unique learning style and goals. My approach is rooted in personalised learning, where every lesson is carefully tailored to match the student’s skill level, pace, and interests. I emphasise strategic thinking, creativity, and time management, while fostering a strong understanding of opening theory, tactics, and endgame fundamentals. My ability to simplify complex concepts and adapt to different learners has helped many students boost their confidence and performance both on and off the board. I’m committed to making chess both educational and enjoyable, creating a learning experience that’s engaging, supportive, and goal-oriented.

My teaching methodology for chess is rooted in creativity, integrity, and strong time management. I focus on helping students understand the deeper logic behind each move, not just memorising patterns. Lessons are interactive and customised, ensuring that each player builds strategic thinking and decision-making skills at their own pace. I emphasise critical areas such as opening principles, mid-game tactics, and endgame techniques, while encouraging original play and adaptive thinking. Time management is also key, especially for those interested in competitive formats like blitz or rapid games. Students learn to balance calculation with intuition, making smart moves even under pressure. Alongside chess, I can also support learners in related subjects like logical reasoning, strategy building, and even the basics of game theory. Whether you're a beginner aiming to build a solid foundation or an intermediate player looking to refine your skills, my approach nurtures growth through a structured yet creative learning environment.
