She's reliable and encouraging; she takes notes to provide me with study points, uses good supplemental materials, but doesn't rely on or require textbook drills. Instead, Kerry is able to point me to particular readings and exercises for the practice related to my abilities and challenges. She's also very personable and easy to talk with.

Josh is both systematic and fun, his skills are superb and he inspires my son to practice and be better with each lesson. Punctual arrival and prompt communication makes him easy to work with. Josh is also kind and encouraging, patient and energetic! We cannot wait to see how much Luca will improve after the semester!

4 Chess lessons

I have know James for several years at our local Parma Chess club. I did not know that James taught chess. The first thing we did was to play a game of chess to review my strength and weakness. He attempted to teach me how to count the pieces on the board and what pieces were under attack. Where there other pieces protecting those pieces. Look for open files and diagonal for the rooks, bishops, Queen. Look for good moves and find a the best movie.
