This page contains the summary information for each teacher in the Directory. Click on the teacher's name to get their full information. Listings by location and specialty are available on the Directory Page
This project is in memory of International Master Boris Kogan.
Information in the directory is free to both teachers and students. Teachers are listed by location (including online and e-mail lessons), by specialty (learning disabled children, team coaching, openings, languages in which lessons are given, etc.), and alphabetically by last name. Duif's Place also includes a chess page for kids, and one for parents of young players.
