About Felicity
As a Chess Grandmaster and passionate educator, my journey in chess began with a fascination for its complexity and the strategic depth it offers. Over the years, I have honed my skills through rigorous training and competition, achieving mastery that allows me to compete and excel at the highest levels internationally.
My commitment to teaching chess stems from a desire to share my knowledge and passion with others. With several years of experience coaching students of all ages and skill levels, I bring a structured yet flexible approach to my lessons. I strive to create a supportive and inspiring environment where each student can thrive and develop their own unique strengths in the game.
In my teaching philosophy, I emphasize not only technical proficiency but also the cultivation of critical thinking, problem-solving skills, and resilience. I believe that chess is not just a game but a valuable tool for developing cognitive abilities and life skills such as patience, concentration, and decision-making under pressure. Through personalized coaching, interactive exercises, and game analysis, I aim to empower my students to think strategically and confidently navigate challenges both on and off the chessboard.
Beyond the board, I am deeply committed to fostering a love for learning and intellectual growth. I encourage my students to set goals, push their boundaries, and continuously strive for improvement. As a lifelong learner myself, I am dedicated to staying current with advancements in chess theory and teaching methodologies, ensuring that my students receive the most effective and enriching educational experience possible.
Ultimately, my goal is to inspire a lifelong appreciation for chess and its profound benefits among my students. Whether they aspire to compete professionally or simply enjoy the game recreationally, I am dedicated to nurturing their passion, enhancing their skills, and fostering a deeper understanding of the art and science of chess.

In my chess lessons, I strive to cultivate not only tactical prowess but also a deep appreciation for strategic thinking and problem-solving skills. With years of experience both as a player and a coach, I tailor each session to meet the unique needs and aspirations of my students, whether they are beginners or advanced players.
Every lesson begins with a thorough assessment of the student's current skill level and understanding of chess fundamentals. From there, I develop a personalized curriculum that covers essential concepts such as piece movement, opening principles, middle-game strategies, endgame techniques, and tactics. I emphasize a balanced approach that includes practical exercises, puzzles, and game analysis to reinforce learning and challenge students to think critically.
Beyond mastering the technical aspects of chess, I focus on developing a holistic understanding of the game. This includes fostering creativity in problem-solving, enhancing decision-making abilities under pressure, and promoting sportsmanship and respect for opponents. Through interactive discussions, simulated games, and competitive play, I aim to instill confidence and strategic thinking skills that extend beyond the chessboard into everyday life.
I am committed to creating a supportive and motivating learning environment where students feel encouraged to explore new ideas, learn from their mistakes, and achieve their full potential in chess. By nurturing a love for the game and empowering students to develop their own playing style, I hope to inspire a lifelong passion for chess and its intellectual challenges among my students.
