About Zara
My teaching methodology focuses on making chess both practical and enjoyable. I use real-life examples and case studies to explain strategies, decision-making, and planning. By connecting lessons to real situations, students not only improve their game but also strengthen transferable skills such as focus, analysis, and problem-solving. This approach makes learning more meaningful and easier to master. Flexibility is central to my teaching. Every learner progresses at a different pace, so I adapt lessons to match their level and goals. Beginners may start with piece movement and basic rules, while advanced players dive into openings, endgames, or positional play. Patience and motivation guide my lessons, ensuring students feel supported, encouraged, and confident as they improve step by step. In addition to chess, I incorporate related subjects that sharpen logical thinking, creativity, and planning—skills that benefit both academics and professional development. My ultimate goal is to create interactive and inspiring lessons that build confidence, strategic ability, and a lasting enjoyment of the game.

My teaching methodology focuses on making chess clear, engaging, and relatable. I use real-life examples and case studies to explain moves, strategies, and decision-making, helping learners connect the game to everyday thinking. This not only strengthens chess skills but also enhances broader problem-solving abilities. I believe learning is most effective when students see practical meaning in what they study.
Flexibility is central to my approach. Each learner is unique, so I adapt lessons to their pace, goals, and experience—whether introducing beginners to piece movement or guiding advanced players through complex strategies. Patience and motivation shape my teaching style, creating a supportive environment where students feel encouraged to practice, ask questions, and grow step by step.
Beyond chess, I also incorporate subjects that build complementary skills such as logic, planning, and critical analysis. These areas enrich the learning process, giving students a well-rounded foundation for sharper thinking. My goal is to make every lesson interactive, practical, and motivating, so learners not only improve at chess but also gain valuable skills for learning and life.
