Christopher has been excellent at tutoring my 7-year old stepson in chess. We have only just begun, but he is very engaged and excited to learn this new game, thanks to Chris. Chris is patient and sensitive to kids individual needs. Clearly Chris is capable of tutoring far more advanced students, but he has a gift for making the game relevant to kids just starting out.

UPDATE: My son took his standardized test and did significantly better than in his practice tests in most areas. John was not just instrumental in getting him ready for it, but he went above and beyond by offering to write a letter of recommendation for one of the schools we are applying to, where he is an instructor. He also offered to introduce him to other kids that play chess at the school, this being one of my son’s interests.
