About Iris
I am a chess tutor with over 9 years of experience and an Associate of Arts in Chess Fundamentals. I specialize in preparing students for tournaments, team matches, and club competitions. Lessons focus on tactical awareness, strategic planning, and endgame mastery. I emphasize visualization, calculation, and board pattern recognition. Students learn to analyze games critically and develop adaptive strategies. Exercises cover openings, middlegame techniques, and practical endgame scenarios. I encourage both individual skill-building and collaboration for team play. My teaching style is supportive, motivating, and focused on growth. Students gain confidence, composure, and problem-solving abilities. Lessons combine technical skills with creative thinking. I enjoy helping students explore strategy while building a love for the game. Each session strengthens skill, focus, and strategic insight. Together, we prepare for success in every chess challenge.
