Diamond Chess Academy
About
I offer an innovative training program to help you learn fast and become a better player. My success comes from combining a carefully designed dynamic powerful chess program for different skill levels from beginner to advanced with my extensive experience teaching and playing chess. The result is measured by your increased performance in tournaments and a higher rating in FIDE and USCF.
Most of my students were beginners looking for someone to guide their way through copious amounts of chess material available out there. Besides beginners, I've been successfully teaching 1600-1900 elo strength players and children.
My best students improved their rating by over 400 points in a 6-12 months period.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I'm using an individual approach for every student. I will work with you on all parts of the game, but the main focus will be on your weaknesses. I will detect them after analyzing carefully your games. I approach every student very individually, judging from the needs we work out plan on what we are going to work on, and systematically work on improving weakest links. Also, I believe it is highly important to analyze your own games to eliminate mistakes from repeating.
My teaching style is completely personalized and I adhere to the student's needs.
Lessons are chiefly based on correcting student's flaws by analyzing his/her or classical games.
During the lesson, the emphasis is put on the thinking process and psychology. I ought to share not only what I think about a certain positions, but what chain of thoughts led me to that.
