I follow a structured approach based on the methods of top grandmasters. The focus is on understanding the game of chess, rather than endlessly memorizing opening variations. Drawing on over nine years of tournament experience, I have learned a great deal about the practical aspects of the game; that is why it is important to me to teach my students how to create practical chances in their games.

Meine aktuelle Fide Elo liegt bei ca. 2140.
Tom ist ein sehr guter und ambitionierter Spieler der sich in den letzten Jahren konstant verbessert und letztendlich den FM Titel (!) erreicht hat. Er unterstützt mich immer ,in allen Bereichen des Schachspiels, sei es positionell ,dynamisch oder doch psychologisch. Noch viel wichtiger - Tom ist ein herzensguter Mensch, mit dem man viel Spaß haben kann. Seine Art Dinge beizubringen ist ... einzigartig! :)
Ich kann ihm also jedem empfehlen, der sein Schach auf ein anderes Level bringen- und dabei den Spaß nicht vergessen möchte!Obwohl Tom noch jung ist, ist er ein außergewöhnlich guter Trainer. Er hilft nicht nur durch seine schachliche Brillanz, sondern unterstützt auch mental bei der Turniervorbereitung. Seine positive Energie ist mitreißend, und zudem erklärt er Pläne, Ideen und Motive sehr anschaulich und verständlich.
Ich schätze ihn sehr , nicht nur als Trainer, sondern auch als Mensch. Er hat mir in kurzer Zeit zu einem großen schachlichen Fortschritt verholfen, was sich auch in meiner FIDE-Elo widerspiegelt.
Alles in allem kann ich ihn uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen.Starker Fide (!) Meister
Unglaublich starke Eröffnungen
Pläne sind stark erkennbar
Aufgaben sind klar strukturiert
Neigt dazu zu viel beizubringen
Immer gut gelaunt
Gerne wieder
Absolut empfehlenswertView more recommendations
