Great teacher, helpful and engaging
Joaquin helped me with the concepts I’d requested we cover, was super patient with my beginner/low level, explained concepts well and made the time fly by.

Good puzzle setting
Joaquin set about 10 puzzles for the hour and helped me understand why certain moves were good and others were not. We also reviewed some of my games and he pointed out some good lines. As always I enjoyed the hour of learning chess.
