About Sean
I'm Sean, and I have loved chess my entire life from a distance, but in 2019 started learning properly. 7 years later and I'm in the top 0.7% of players on chess.com, having won numerous local tournaments, including the Warwick Community Chess Club Championship in 2022.
I have a background in education in primary, secondary, and tertiary education settings, and I'd love to share my chess experience with anyone and everyone.
I believe everyone in the world should play chess

Want to actually get better at chess, not just memorise random openings?
I’m Sean, an 1800-rated rapid player on Chess.com, placing me in the top 0.7% of online players, and I offer friendly, practical lessons for beginners through to intermediate/advanced players.
I can help you understand the mistakes holding you back, including missed tactics, hanging pieces, weak plans, poor trades, time pressure, and not knowing what to do after the opening.
Lessons can cover tactics, strategy, openings, endgames, calculation, pattern recognition, and game reviews based on your own matches.
Whether you’re brand new, stuck at a rating, or just want to beat your friends, I’ll help make chess clearer, calmer, and more fun.

Sean and I were colleagues at Ubisoft. He dives into difficult problem spaces without fear and has a knack for finding creative and elegant solutions. He is patient and passionate about his work, making him an excellent mentor for anyone on their game dev journey.
Sean is a super friendly and very approachable guy, with a wealth of knowledge about games and a great sense of humor. He enjoys teaching and is just an overall great guy to be around!
Sean is a legend. Super patient and takes the time to adapt to my learning style. Awesome communication and nothing is too much trouble! Very genuine human. Thank you, Sean!
Sean is an amazing game developer. He’s been working in it professionally for many years now and excels at it. Even when we were in university studying game development, he always had a good mind for it.
Obviously, knowledge alone doesn’t always make a good teacher, but with Sean, you get a person who’s also had multiple years of experience working as a teacher for a renowned university.
Would highly recommend Sean if you’re seeking to learn any aspect of game development.I am a member of the Discord community for a game called Vicious Legacy, a game which Sean develops and tracks his development journey in devlogs via Youtube. In Sean's devlogs he explains his ideas and the methods he uses to implement them in a clear and concise manner. This makes the devlogs not only entertaining, but highly educational as well. Sean is very transparent and communicative with the Vicious Legacy community, and combined with his clear knowledge of game development I have full confidence in his ability to teach others.
Sean is an excellent teacher; he doesn’t just have the game development background, he also has a lot of experience lecturing, and it shows. Super friendly and knowledgeable.
