About Isla
My teaching methodology for chess combines real-life examples and case studies with creativity and integrity to foster a deep understanding of the game. I utilize historical matches and famous games to illustrate strategic concepts and tactical maneuvers, allowing students to see the application of theories in real scenarios. This approach not only makes learning engaging but also helps students grasp complex ideas more effectively.
Creativity plays a crucial role in my lessons, encouraging students to think outside the box and develop their unique playing styles. I emphasize integrity by promoting fair play, respect for opponents, and ethical decision-making both on and off the board. In addition to chess, I offer tutoring in related subjects, leveraging the critical thinking and analytical skills developed through chess to enhance learning in areas such as mathematics and problem-solving. My goal is to create a supportive and inspiring environment that empowers students to achieve their full potential.
