About me

I am a Grand Master from India. Available for online lessons for players above FIDE Elo rating 1800 only,

Playing experience

More than 25 Years of playing experience in National and International Tournaments in different countries in the world.
Winner of a few International tournaments in Europe. Represented India in some biggest chess events like World Championship knockout, World Rapid & Blitz, Asian Teams, etc.

Teaching experience

I have worked with players with FIDE ratings between 1500 to 2200 levels for the last 10 years. Since I am still active as a player, I won't be available often. But I believe an active player can be very helpful in playing the role of a coach because as a player he himself has to practice and be updated with the developments in chess theory. I would be happy to work with those who are hard-working, motivated, and passionate to learn from my experiences.

Other experiences

A commentator in a TV Show during World Championship 2010.

Best skills

Training on Calculations and decision making in practical games with limited time. My goal is also to make the student work independently on his own so that in the absence of a trainer he can still improve.

Teaching methodology

After analyzing the games of the student, I make a specific training program and prepare lessons according to the requirement of the player.
I prefer to spend a good amount of time understanding the strengths and weaknesses of the player from his games and analysis and give my suggestions accordingly.
