| Additional Comments from the Teacher |
| To be an excellent teacher, one has to have both an overall "system" for understanding and playing chess and have the ability to explain that system in terms that a less knowledgeable player can understand. My system in tactics alone helped propel my rating from 1813 to 2225 in 6 months. And I take pride in my ability to explain chess in simple terms that even novices can understand. |

| I have been teaching chess for the past 2 years at Nanyang JC , a junior college in Singapore. I teach for free through email/phone. However , I would charge a small fee if providing personal coaching at the student's home. |

| Additional Comments from the Teacher |
| I am a very experienced player and am the current Australian
correspondence champion, and have had a FIDE rating 2310-2365
over the past 5 years. I have had many enjoyable coaching
seesions with players of varying backgrounds since 1983, some of
whom are now coaches themselves. I use a variety of methods and
adjust them to the student's needs, and have put a lot into
researching how chess can be effectively taught and learnt.
My handle on Fics is "Intuition". Read my web pages for more information plus some chess articles. |
