About Callum

My teaching style is centered on making chess meaningful, relatable, and deeply engaging. I use real-life examples and classic game case studies to help students connect theory with practical decision-making. Each lesson includes stories from iconic matches, which bring strategies to life and make learning memorable. Collaboration is key in my sessions. I encourage open discussion, joint analysis, and shared problem-solving so students feel involved and invested. This approach builds confidence, not just in chess but in overall critical thinking. Empathy is at the heart of how I teach. I take time to understand each student’s pace, strengths, and learning style, offering patient guidance and encouragement throughout. Mistakes are viewed as learning opportunities, and progress is celebrated. Beyond chess, I can also teach strategic thinking, logic, and basic probability—all skills that naturally complement the game. My methodology supports a curious and motivated mindset. I aim to help students grow not only as chess players but as thoughtful, adaptable learners.
