Private chess lessons – Beginners and intermediate levels

From 25.9 £ /h

Young graduate with a double bachelor's degree and two master's degrees, ranked top 0.2% worldwide in online rapid games (2100 Elo), founder and former president of the KU Leuven chess club.

I use a high-end professional training software, the same one I use for my own workouts. It's paid software, but I cover the entire subscription cost: its use is therefore included in the price of the course, at no extra cost to the student.

I work extensively with learning from mistakes: we analyze the shots played together, what could have been better, and why. The goal is to make mistakes together, so that they disappear when the student plays outside of lessons. This approach removes the fear of making mistakes, reduces stress, and numerous studies show that it is very effective for learning – research by Manu Kapur (National Institute of Education, Singapore).

For who ?
My courses are for students of all ages, beginners or intermediate, in both French and English, who wish to:
-to take up chess, or to improve their level to reach that of a good club player
-to facilitate progress in a hobby
-learning without pressure, at their own pace

About Me

Je suis un jeune diplômé d’une double licence en sciences politiques et philosophie, ainsi que de deux masters, l’un en politique internationale et l’autre en communication. J’ai donc l’habitude de travailler avec des sujets complexes et de les rendre accessibles.

J’ai déjà entraîné des élèves pour la compétition MEU (Model European Union), où je les aidais à faire leurs recherches, structurer leurs arguments et prendre la parole en public lors d’une compétition oratoire officielle étalée sur trois jours.
À l’université, en tant que fondateur et président du club d’échecs de la KU Leuven, j’ai aussi encadré des étudiants, organisé des activités et accompagné de nouveaux membres.

Ce n’est donc pas la première fois que je me retrouve dans un rôle de personne ressource. C’est un cadre dans lequel je me sens à l’aise, que j’apprécie vraiment, et où je fais toujours en sorte que les élèves se sentent écoutés, respectés et en confiance.

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 childhood, I've played hundreds of competitions and won dozens of youth and adult tournaments.
For the past 10 years, I have been sharing my passion for chess as a teacher in various settings: clubs, primary schools, secondary schools, private lessons, and 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:
• 10 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.
