About Cordelia
As a seasoned chess tutor with over 8 years of experience, I bring a deep passion for the game and a comprehensive understanding of strategy, tactics, and opening theory. My journey with chess began early in my academic years, evolving into a lifelong pursuit that combines analytical thinking with strategic planning. Over the years, I've honed my skills through various competitions and continuous study, enabling me to impart valuable insights and techniques to my students.
Beyond chess, my interests extend to a diverse range of hobbies that enrich my teaching approach. I am an avid reader, constantly exploring new strategies and historical games to broaden my knowledge base. Hiking in natural landscapes fuels my creativity and provides a refreshing perspective on problem-solving, which I integrate into my coaching methods. Additionally, my love for photography allows me to capture the intricate beauty of chess positions and moments of competitive play, further deepening my appreciation for the game.
In my tutoring sessions, I emphasize a personalized approach tailored to each student's strengths and areas for improvement. Whether preparing for school competitions or aiming to master advanced strategies, I am dedicated to fostering a supportive learning environment that encourages growth and confidence in every aspect of the game. My goal is not only to teach chess but also to instill a lifelong passion for strategic thinking and intellectual challenge in my students.

With over 8 years of experience as a chess tutor, I have developed a structured and engaging approach to teaching that focuses on strategy, tactics, and mastering key opening principles. My lessons are carefully tailored to meet the unique needs of school students, whether they are beginners looking to understand the fundamentals or advanced players aiming to refine their competitive edge.
Each lesson is designed to build a solid foundation in chess fundamentals while also nurturing critical thinking skills and strategic decision-making. I believe in a hands-on approach, where students actively participate in analyzing positions, exploring different strategies, and practicing tactical puzzles. This interactive method not only enhances their understanding of the game but also cultivates a deeper appreciation for its complexities.
Preparing students for competitions is a key aspect of my coaching philosophy. I provide expert guidance on tournament preparation, helping students develop effective game plans, manage time constraints, and maintain focus under pressure. Through personalized coaching, I aim to empower students with the confidence and skills needed to excel in competitive chess environments, fostering a passion for the game that extends beyond the classroom.
My commitment to chess extends beyond teaching; it is a lifelong pursuit that fuels my dedication to continuous learning and improvement. I stay updated with the latest developments in chess theory and competitive play, ensuring that my students receive the most relevant and effective instruction possible. My ultimate goal is to inspire a love for chess in each student and to help them achieve their personal best both on and off the chessboard.
