About Gökhan

Hello chess lovers!
Welcome to the fascinating world of chess! I am Gökhan, a chess enthusiast and experienced instructor for 20 years. Below you can find more information about the teaching techniques and details I can offer you:

* My Teaching Experience: I started learning chess at the age of 6 and combined this passion with chess club membership and tournaments in which I represented my university during my university years. As I rose to the position of club president, I had the opportunity to give private lessons to university students. In 2006, I successfully completed the training and examination process organized by the Turkish Chess Federation and started my professional career as a chess coach. While continuing my university life, I also provided private lessons to primary school students. While working as a cyber security engineer in the technology sector since 2008, chess has become an indispensable passion for me. I gave training and organized tournaments at the company I worked for. Additionally, as the Istanbul provincial referee between 2010 and 2015, I served as a referee in many tournaments organized by the public and private sectors. Since I did not provide online education during the pandemic period, I took a break from my classes during this period.
* Student Profile: I don't remember the number of group lessons, but I taught over 60 students (aged 7-16) in one-on-one lessons. If anyone wants to get information, I can provide references from my former students.

* My Teaching Techniques and Methods: I use customized teaching techniques by understanding each student's learning style. I provide guidance in all areas, starting from basic chess openings to advanced strategies. I also help you develop your problem solving and critical thinking skills.
* Course Method: My lessons are practical and participatory. My students learn by playing games on the board, figuring out tactics, and applying strategies. I do not support online education of chess. I can say that I am especially against children. As someone who works in the technology sector, I believe that we should keep children away from digital screens. That's why I teach children face to face. I make learning a fun and effective experience. In addition, I make an online Mac with my students every Sunday and give feedback on mistakes and issues that need improvement.



* Chess and Life: Chess is not just a game for me, but also a tool that develops life skills. Chess increases important skills such as problem solving, planning, patience and concentration and makes it a part of life.
* Lesson Locations: I give face-to-face lessons on the Anatolian side of Istanbul. We can choose a suitable venue for lessons, such as a cafe or your/my home.
* Online Lessons: I think touching the stones is important for memory, so I do not offer online lessons.

If you want to step into the world of chess or improve your existing skills, or if you want your child to gain competencies such as analytical thinking and correct decision-making from an early age, please contact me. I'm here to create a personalized training program for you.



It is always the right time to learn or improve chess and I am here to accompany you on this journey. You can contact me by email or phone and ask any questions you may have.
