About Lyra
With 7 years of experience teaching chess to high school and college students, I am deeply committed to fostering a personalized learning experience for each of my students. My approach focuses on understanding each student’s unique strengths, challenges, and learning styles, allowing me to tailor lessons that effectively meet their individual needs.
Throughout my career, I’ve helped students improve their strategic thinking, problem-solving abilities, and overall game performance. I believe in the power of chess to teach valuable life skills such as patience, critical thinking, and decision-making, which I incorporate into every lesson.
In addition to my strong teaching skills, I bring a wealth of practical experience and in-depth knowledge of various chess strategies and tactics. My goal is not only to help students succeed in chess competitions but also to instill a deep appreciation for the game that will last a lifetime. Through my teaching, students gain confidence, sharpen their intellect, and develop a love for chess that extends beyond the classroom.

My teaching style centers around creating an engaging, supportive, and interactive environment for chess learners. I believe in fostering creativity by encouraging students to explore different strategies and think outside the box. Chess is about more than memorizing moves—it's about developing critical thinking and problem-solving skills, and I aim to make each lesson both challenging and enjoyable.
Clear communication is key to understanding, so I ensure that complex concepts are explained in a simple, approachable way. I take time to listen to my students, showing empathy and understanding of their learning styles, which helps build confidence and a love for the game.
Integrity and accountability are central to my teaching—students are guided with honesty and encouragement, ensuring they stay motivated and focused on their growth. Along with chess, I can teach other relevant subjects like game theory and strategy, offering a well-rounded approach to intellectual development. My ultimate goal is to inspire students to become not only better chess players but also strategic thinkers in life.
