About Siena
I am a dedicated Chess tutor with 7 years of experience teaching high school and college students. My approach focuses on personalized learning, where each lesson is tailored to match the student’s skill level, learning style, and individual goals. I believe that Chess is more than just a game—it’s a tool to build critical thinking, strategic planning, and mental discipline. Whether guiding beginners through foundational concepts or helping advanced players refine their tactics, I strive to make every session engaging and growth-oriented. I use real-game analysis, interactive puzzles, and situational case studies to bring the game to life and deepen understanding. My unique strength lies in connecting with students and turning complex strategies into clear, achievable steps. I emphasize patience, creativity, and sportsmanship, helping students grow both as players and thinkers. With a strong focus on progress, confidence, and strategic mastery, I’m committed to supporting each student on their personal chess journey.

My teaching style in Chess is rooted in real-life examples and case studies that make strategic thinking relatable and engaging. I believe that understanding the “why” behind each move is just as important as the move itself. By analyzing classic games and modern tactics, I help students connect theory with practice in a meaningful way.
Collaboration is at the heart of my sessions. I encourage open discussions, questioning, and joint analysis, creating a supportive environment where students can learn from both mistakes and successes. Flexibility in my approach allows me to adapt lessons based on individual goals, whether you're a beginner mastering the basics or an advanced player preparing for tournaments.
Creativity is a key element—I teach students to think beyond the board and develop their own unique style of play. I emphasize integrity in competition, promoting fair play and respect for opponents. Alongside Chess, I can also support learning in strategic games like Risk, Backgammon, and Catan, broadening critical thinking and decision-making skills.
