Hi, my name is Gabriel. I'm the head coach of the chess team of the National University of Mexico (UNAM) since 2010. I speak fluent English as I lived six years in Oxford, England, when I was a child and I practice it since then.

With the UNAM's team I have obtained the following titles:
National Women's Championship: 2014, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019
National Men's Championship: 2018, 2019
Absolute National Championship: 2018, 2019
Panamerican 2013 in Durango: silver medal

I also have extensive experience with players of all ages and levels. Here is a list of the places where I have worked:
- UNAM's Children's Chess Program since 2012.
- Private schools.
- CEDAT School for gifted children.
- Private sports and social clubs.
- Homeschoolers
- Personal chess coach since 2005.

My peak rating is 2165 FIDE ELO, which would be equivalent to the USCF National Master level, although really my chess dedication has been focused on teaching.
I would love to help you learn chess or improve your game to reach competitive levels. It does not matter your degree of experience, your level of play, or your age.

I am attentive to any questions you may have.
Greeting and I wish you success!

Hello everyone!

I am International Master Sanket, and I offer both training sessions and practice sessions for serious chess players looking to improve their game.

Teaching Methodology:

Step 1: Assessment

Before starting, I will ask you to send games from your last three tournaments.

During the first two classes, I will:

Analyze your games in detail
Identify recurring mistakes and weaknesses
Evaluate your strengths, style, and thought process
Create a personalized improvement plan

Step 2: Structured Improvement

Once the key weaknesses have been identified, future classes will focus on:

Positional understanding
Calculation and visualization
Decision-making
Middlegame planning
Practical tournament skills
Endgame fundamentals and technique

Step 3: Homework & Training

Students will receive carefully selected homework assignments designed to reinforce the concepts discussed during lessons.

The goal is not only to learn principles but also to apply them independently.

Step 4: Opening Preparation

I will provide opening files and repertoire guidance whenever necessary. However, I believe openings should support overall chess understanding rather than dominate training time.

For most students, improving calculation, strategic understanding, and practical decision-making yields much greater long-term results than memorizing opening variations.

Some of my achievements include:
1. Norway Open Blitz 2025 – Champion
2. 44th Indian National Team Chess Championship 2025 – Silver Medal
3. Asian Club Chess Champions League – Team Bronze Medal, Individual Silver Medal (Board 5)
4. 18th Plancoët International Open 2025 – Joint Champion (Runner-up on tiebreaks)
5. 2nd Orchies International Chess 2026 - Champion

I am currently pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science and Engineering at Jadavpur University.

Outside chess, I enjoy travelling, exploring new countries, and experiencing different cultures and adventures.

High-Level Chess Coach (2500 Chess.com Elo)
Are you stuck at a frustrating plateau (1200, 1400 or 1600 Elo)? Are you tired of losing games due to a lack of strategy or repeated mistakes in the mid-game?
A 2500 Elo player on Chess.com (top of the world on the platform) at 15 years old, I don't offer lessons for beginners. I don't teach the movement of the pieces. My goal is to help intermediate and advanced players structure their game to reach a new level.
What we will be working on together:
-The calculation process: Eliminating tactical blunders and learning to calculate properly under pressure.
-Strategy and the middle of the game: Knowing what to do when there is no longer a direct tactic (pawn structures, attack plans, positional weaknesses).
-The cleanliness of the repertoire: Clean up your openings to obtain comfortable and playable positions right from the start of the theory.
-Critical analysis: Dissecting your worst defeats to understand why you made a bad decision.
My method:
No long, boring theoretical speeches. We work concretely with targeted exercises, and I adapt to your goals for the summer.
My rates:
For summer 2026, I'm offering an exceptional deal. Contact me to create a program, keeping in mind that prices decrease if you book multiple sessions.
We will arrange the schedule privately.

Improve Your Chess Through Better Thinking, Not Just Better Moves

Whether you're a beginner building strong fundamentals or an experienced tournament player aiming for the next rating milestone, my lessons are designed to develop the skills that matter most over the board.

As a USCF National Master and FIDE-rated player with years of coaching experience, I focus on teaching students how to think, not simply what moves to play. My lessons emphasize:

♟️ Calculation and visualization
🎯 Identifying forcing moves and candidate moves
🧠 Evaluating positions accurately
🛡️ Anticipating the opponent's best defensive resources
📈 Practical decision-making under tournament conditions
📚 Endgames, strategy, tactics, and opening understanding

Every lesson is tailored to the student's current level and goals. Rather than memorizing lines, students learn a structured thought process they can apply in any position.

Whether you're preparing for your first tournament or working toward expert or master strength, my goal is to help you become a more confident, disciplined, and independent chess player.
