About Farirai


Bio

I am a passionate Chess instructor. I have coached chess for 10 years and along the way have seen the joy and success this beautiful game brings to those who play it. Most, if not all the skills learnt through Chess are transferable to other areas of life. Younger students become more confident in their abilities are more focused and have foresight. I enjoy the creativeness of a young mind that can be displayed through Chess. Older players bring discipline and structure to their daily lives...

I am a passionate Chess instructor. I have coached chess for 10 years and along the way have seen the joy and success this beautiful game brings to those who play it. Most, if not all the skills learnt through Chess are transferable to other areas of life. Younger students become more confident in their abilities are more focused and have foresight. I enjoy the creativeness of a young mind that can be displayed through Chess. Older players bring discipline and structure to their daily lives with chess as a hobby or a competitive past time.

Yes! Chess is fun also. you get to travel and meet new friends and learn from them. I have a Chess Instructors title (NI) National Instructor from the World Chess governing body (FIDE). I also organise chess tournaments and acquired another FIDE title of (FA) FIDE Arbiter. I have had students acquire International titles at Chess competitions including World Chess Olympics. Not only do I teach chess I play also with registered International rating. I am a tournament player having played in three different countries.

Get in touch with me to learn many other joys and benefits of chess. from the beginner player young or old to the tournament or club player. I will be happy to share my experience and help you improve and love chess!

Always prepared, patient, with a clear lesson plan.

Coach Farirai is always very patient and positive when teaching my 8 year old son who is sometimes unfocused and always has a lot of energy. He always has a clear lesson plan for class and gives a very detailed report of what went on in class which is very helpful. My son has steadily improved his chess game and loves playing. Coach Farirai is helping to build a good chess foundation for my son.

Great Knowledge and Teaching Methods

Fari is an excellent teacher. He is not only very knowledgeable about the game of chess, but more importantly he knows how to effectively deliver that knowledge to the student. I enjoy Fari's philosophical and practical approach to the game. I find that it allows me to easily connect to the principles and understand the strategy of the game, Masterful teacher!

Very patient and extremely knowledgeable

Mr. Farirai is a wonderful coach for my 10 yo, he is very patient, knowledgeable and would even go past the class time to make sure that my son is understanding their lesson, he pointed out his weaknesses and improved his game. Mr. Farirai has been coaching my son for almost a month now and for the first time he won a trophy from his last tournament! I highly recommend Mr. Farirai and Im glad we found him.

Farirai Is Awesome

Simply put Farirai is a great choice for beginners like myself to learn chess. He was able to clearly explain ideas and break things down even for someone who does not know much about chess. He is a gentleman and if you are looking for a chess coach he is a fantastic choice!

Excellent Chess Tutor

Mr. Farirai, My son told me that he wanted to play Chess so I used Wyzant and found Mr. Farirai. He is an excellent tutor and provides great feedback and I am very pleased with my son's progress.
