Chess for Kids & Beginners in English/Русский/Қазақша with a professional

From 13.48 £ /h

I help kids and beginners go from 0 to tournament-ready using the Russian School of Chess.

I’m a Candidate Master in Chess (KMS) and reigning Astana U16 Champion. I’m 17 and currently studying at Nazarbayev University on a full state grant. I also scored IELTS 7.5 and placed 2nd in the National Philosophy Olympiad in English.

My lessons are perfect if you want:
- Your child to learn chess in Russian, Kazakh, or English
- Structured prep for school tournaments and ratings 1000-1600
- A young, relatable coach who explains tactics without boring lectures

How we work:
1. Warm-up with a fun puzzle tailored to your level
2. Learn 1 key idea: pins, forks, opening traps, endgames
3. Play + live analysis on Lichess/Chess.com so you apply it right away
4. Homework: 3 puzzles + 1 mini-game to review next class

I teach using interactive boards, screen share, and real game examples. First lesson we’ll set a 3-month goal together: beat your sibling, win school tournament, reach 1200 online, etc.

Languages: Fluent in English, Russian, Kazakh. I can explain complex ideas simply in your preferred language.

Age groups: Best with students 6-18 and adult beginners. If you’re a parent, I send a short progress note after each class.

Let’s make chess your superpower. Book a lesson and we’ll find your play style!
