About Alma
I am a dedicated chess tutor with 6 years of experience teaching students of all skill levels—from absolute beginners to advanced competitors. Over the years, I have had the privilege of guiding 200 to 300 students on their chess journey, helping them build confidence, sharpen their strategic thinking, and deepen their love for the game. My teaching philosophy centers on personalized learning. I believe that every student has a unique way of understanding and applying chess concepts, so I tailor each lesson to fit individual goals, strengths, and areas for improvement. Whether you want to master openings, improve your middle-game tactics, or excel at endgame strategies, I create customized plans that make learning engaging and effective. One of my unique skills is breaking down complex strategies into easy-to-understand concepts, making chess accessible and enjoyable. I incorporate real-life game analysis and practical exercises to enhance critical thinking and problem-solving abilities beyond the board. My lessons foster a collaborative and supportive environment where students feel encouraged to ask questions and explore creative moves. I am committed not only to improving your chess skills but also to helping you develop discipline, patience, and a growth mindset that extends beyond the game. Whether you aim to compete in tournaments or simply enjoy chess as a rewarding pastime, I am here to support your progress every step of the way.

My teaching methodology for Chess is grounded in Integrity, Accountability, and Creativity. I believe that learning chess is not just about memorizing moves but about developing critical thinking and problem-solving skills that extend beyond the board. Every student is unique, so I tailor lessons to individual learning styles and goals, whether you are a beginner or an advanced player seeking to refine your strategy.
I use real-life examples and case studies from historic and contemporary games to illustrate key concepts. This approach helps students see how theory applies in practice, making abstract ideas concrete and engaging. By analyzing famous matches, students learn to anticipate their opponent’s plans and adapt dynamically.
Collaboration is central to my teaching style. I encourage active dialogue during lessons and foster a supportive environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and exploring new ideas. Accountability is also crucial — I set clear milestones and provide consistent feedback, helping students track their progress and stay motivated.
Beyond Chess, I can teach related subjects such as logic puzzles, strategic thinking, and basic game theory, which complement chess skills and sharpen analytical abilities. My goal is to empower students to not only improve their chess game but also develop transferable skills for academic and personal growth.
With a balance of structured guidance and creative exploration, I aim to make chess learning both effective and enjoyable. Whether you want to compete, improve your tactical vision, or simply enjoy the beauty of the game, I’m here to support your journey every step of the way.
