International Master (elo>2400) and Trainer for 22 years (-50% tax credit!)★ For all courses at your home, there is a 50% tax credit on the price of the courses.
★ I teach children from 5 years old.
Do you often wonder why you can't progress?
Because you are looking left and right for information, advice and books to read but you are getting scattered.
You constantly watch chess videos on the Internet which are entertaining but it is too passive an activity which does not really make you study chess in depth.
Then you will play online games at too fast a pace while you do not master the general principles.
In fact, you have developed bad reflexes because you keep repeating the same mistakes without even realizing it, which is why your level quickly stagnates.
When you analyze your games, click on the 20th move and you will realize that often your game is already badly engaged. You often manage your time badly, you play too fast when it is important to choose the right voice and you hesitate too long in positions where the moves are obvious.
Then, you make a game report which tells you that you played with 80% accuracy but nevertheless you lost and you do not necessarily understand the main reasons.
And finally, you watch the game with an analysis module which offers you good moves but does not provide you with the explanations necessary to fully understand them.
Some teachers also offer group lessons with a monthly subscription which can help you progress slightly, but what you need is a truly personalized lesson.
Taking private lessons will save you a lot of time because I know the methods that work to progress and quickly be more competitive. I will teach you the essential concepts to master to better understand chess overall and I can recommend interesting books to study alongside classes.
I have always liked to pass on my knowledge to my students so that they can give the best of themselves. This is why, over the years, I have improved my teaching techniques and I have created a real training program in order to best help my students unlock their potential.
It is important to understand that good progress is a subtle balance between playing and studying.
Whether you want to compete for fun or to win titles, whether you want to beat your friends or simply discover the complexity of the game of chess: this announcement is made for you!
★ I would like to reassure “beginners” who are sometimes a little “ashamed” of their level by telling them that I have many beginner students!
★ Recent examples:
➤ September 2018, a 16-year-old student takes 1.5 hours of lessons per week to improve in competition. It goes from 1650 to 2000 in around fifteen hours of lessons!
➤ November 2019, I have 2 new students (29 and 30 years old) who are 1200 on Chesscom. One decides to take 3 hours of lessons per week and the other 4 hours. 1 year later, there are 2000 of them on the same site!
➤ September 2021, a 35-year-old student returns to chess competitions after a 20-year hiatus. With 1 hour of lessons per week, it goes from 1350 to 1650 after only 10 hours of lessons!
➤ September 2021, a 23-year-old student decides to take 3 hours of lessons per week at 1600 on Chesscom. After a year of lessons he reached 2380 in 15 minute games!
➤ July 2022, a 30-year-old student decides to take 2 hours of lessons per week, he is then 800 on Chesscom. Barely 6 months later, it is 1450 on the same site!
➤ December 2023, one of my young students went from 1600 to 2000 FIDE elo in 2 years of lessons and became Paris Champion in his age category!
★ If you still have hesitations, I have more than 200 reviews left by my students at the bottom of the ad. You can read some of them, this will allow you to get a better idea of the quality of the courses and the good atmosphere that reigns there.
In order for the lessons to be effective, the secret is regularity, that is to say doing at least 1 hour of lessons per week.
★ ★ Mini group lessons (2 to 4 people):
➤ If you don't want to take lessons alone because you've never taken one.
➤ If you want to work on common themes with your friends who have a similar level to yours.
➤ If you want your teenagers to do something more interesting than spending their days in front of their tablets.
➤ Or if you simply want quality courses at a preferential price.
This offer might interest you! Prices are specified at the very bottom of the ad.
★ ★ Individual lessons for adults and experienced children: I offer quality lessons with a real methodology!
★ Progress of the first lessons:
Whether you're competing or playing online, we'll analyze your games over a few sessions. This will allow me to assess your knowledge, thought process, strengths and typical mistakes in order to together define a training program for the upcoming sessions.
For this program to be viable I will take into account your level, your ambitions but also the time you can devote to playing and studying.
★ And for the following courses:
➤ A complete and effective repertoire of openings (created with the latest software), adapted to your style and your level.
Examples: London System, Viennese, Scottish, Tarrash, Sicilian c3, Alekhine, Modern, Philidor, Scandinavian, Caro-Kann, Slavic, East Indian Defense, Petrov...
This repertoire is not based on opening traps but on understanding each move played. This will allow you to play good moves without learning tons of variations by heart!
We will study the openings together in a practical order according to what you are played the most. My goal is not to make you learn tons of lines that you are never played!
I would like to point out that the lines have been worked on very seriously, so you will be able to play them throughout your progression. You will therefore not spend your life re-studying the openings by buying books or online databases, which will save you a lot of time and money!
I would like to point out that I show absolutely everything I know!
➤ A multitude of tactical exercises to be able to take a decisive advantage during your games. I will also teach you methods to optimize your calculations!
➤ The study of elementary checkmates and essential endgames in order to master endgames.
➤ Learn to build a plan in the middle of the game through the study of the games of world champions and their contemporaries.
The goal is to show you a multitude of different patterns so that you have sufficient chess knowledge to be able to play all types of positions well. You will thus develop automatisms and a certain sense of the game which will help you in your games!
This whole methodology aims to make you a complete player.
★★ Courses for beginner children (from 5 years old):
I have a lot of students between 5 and 14 years old who are beginners, it's really an audience I'm used to working with!
It is essential that children have fun, which is why my approach is above all fun!
Each child is different, I always adapt my teaching according to their age, their desires and their level.
I play with them to teach them to think while they play. Chess works a lot on concentration and patience, which is good for school. I teach them to understand the opponent's moves so they can counter them.
I make them a small repertoire of openings and I teach them the typical traps of their favorite openings.
For the rest, I give them simple exercises to start with, then I progress at the student's pace so that they learn the different rules and techniques while having fun!
My lessons boil down to this: good humor and efficiency!
★ Video lessons:
I use the free Discord software to communicate with my student and share my screen.
I have a good quality webcam and a Razer Seiren Mini microphone which are perfect for good transcription of lessons. You will see that video lessons are just as effective as home lessons!
I download your played games from the Internet and then we analyze them via ChessBase.
Thanks to this software, I have access to all my lessons, so I can present classic games to you as well as openings that I have already analyzed beforehand.
I can also show plans using colored arrows, highlight threats, important squares to control or show a weakened pawn structure.
It also contains a database of 12 million games which I use to illustrate my explanations with famous games.
We will also do educational games: I will watch you play and comment on your thought process live, I will also ask you questions that will make you think about specific points. The goal is not to guide you so that you win games but rather to improve your way of thinking.
At the end of each lesson, I send my lessons by email so that you can review the points worked together!
★ Hours:
- Monday to Friday from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m.
★ Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions as I usually respond within the hour. We can therefore arrange a first lesson quickly.
You have nothing to lose because I offer the first half hour of lessons to offset the site's registration fees!
See you soon !

Chess class for beginners: Understand the basic principles, learn how to analyse the chessboard and build a strong foundation as a chess playerChess is a fun game that starts with the basic rules and moves through the 3 parts of the game: the opening, the middlegame, and the endgame.
The focus at first is to teach you how the pieces move, what the goal of the opening is, and how the pieces interact. You will also learn the vocabulary related to chess and chess notation.
Tactics are then explored to take advantage of hanging pieces, lack of king safety, space, and tempo. From here depending on what your personal goals are we will adapt the classes to cover what will help you progress.
I can also give group classes, contact me if you have a group, we can discuss how to best organise those classes and pricing.
