Hello! My name is Daniil, and chess has been a part of my life since I was 5 years old. Passionate about this fascinating game since my childhood, I have played hundreds of competitions, and won dozens of youth and adult tournaments.
For 9 years, I have been sharing my passion for chess as a teacher in various environments: clubs, primary schools, colleges, private lessons, associations. I also teach in English and Russian.
Furthermore, I graduated from the Sorbonne with a Masters in international strategy and business intelligence.
Some figures to know me better:
• 9 years of experience in teaching chess
• 20 years of experience in club and competition
• Official 1900 FIDE / 2400 Elo rating on online platforms
• More than 2,500 courses given to 1,000 students in group and individual lessons
Whether you are a beginner or an experienced player, my lessons are designed to help you progress quickly while having fun playing.
My method is based on solid teaching experience and relies on a comprehensive and structured approach, suitable for all levels. It is based on three main axes:
1. Learning the fundamentals: Learn or consolidate the essential principles in the opening, middlegame and endgames.
2. Tactics and strategy: develop your sense of the game with targeted, fun and practical exercises.
3. Analyze your games: Understand your mistakes, identify your strengths, and apply this knowledge in your games.
My goal is to offer you a clear and complete vision of the game, to progress effectively and achieve your goals, whether it is to play for pleasure or in competition.
