About West
With 9 years of experience teaching Chess to high school and college students, I am deeply committed to personalized learning that meets each student’s unique needs and goals. I focus on developing strategic thinking, problem-solving skills, and a deep understanding of the game’s complexities. My teaching style blends traditional tactics with creative approaches, helping students improve opening strategy, positional play, and endgame tactics. I pride myself on creating a supportive environment where students feel motivated to challenge themselves and grow their confidence. Beyond technical skills, I emphasize sportsmanship and mental discipline. Whether preparing for competitions or simply fostering a love for Chess, I tailor lessons to inspire continuous improvement and lasting passion.

My teaching style in Chess is built on creativity, communication, empathy, and integrity. I encourage students to think outside the box, exploring innovative strategies and creative problem-solving on the board. Clear communication is key—I explain concepts patiently and invite questions to ensure understanding. Empathy helps me tailor lessons to each student’s pace and learning style, creating a supportive environment where mistakes are seen as valuable learning opportunities. Integrity guides how I foster respect for the game and fair play. Beyond Chess, I integrate relevant skills like logical reasoning and strategic thinking. My approach helps students build confidence, develop critical thinking, and enjoy their learning journey.
