6 Chess lessons

I think we've found the right tutor. 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.
Christine F.

6 Chess lessons

He was patient and explained things in a clear and concise manner that my son understood. My teenagers state math test score went from a 3 to a 4. I have recommended John to several friends and will also be hiring him again. He and my son used Chess to break the ice and in between long lessons. The best part, John was such a pleasure that my son never complained about the lessons and gained the confidence and instruction he needed to reach his goal. Thank you John !

She is not only knowledgeable in all matters of chess, but she is patient and funny and makes chess a fun and pleasurable game, which is what it should be for a child. We are looking forward to more lessons with Rachel and to her helping us have our son tournament-ready by this fall!
