About Nelson


Bio

I have been playing chess since I was about 14 years old. I am currently 25 and still play chess on a regular basis albeit most of my play is online through chess websites such as chess.com and lichess.org. I have improved my play over the last couple of years which has helped me to raise my rating from about a 1400 to currently 1753. I do not have any tools or cheats in order to achieve that rating, just lots of games played under my belt.

I would like to teach online if I could...

I have been playing chess since I was about 14 years old. I am currently 25 and still play chess on a regular basis albeit most of my play is online through chess websites such as chess.com and lichess.org. I have improved my play over the last couple of years which has helped me to raise my rating from about a 1400 to currently 1753. I do not have any tools or cheats in order to achieve that rating, just lots of games played under my belt.

I would like to teach online if I could because that is where I am most comfortable. If you are looking for a good playing partner that could help you improve your game maybe a little bit or a lot then I am your guy. I am very patient and will do my best to help you solve some of the puzzles that are chess on your own. I like to encourage people to train their brain to come up with the answer rather than use cheats or solutions to guide them to the answer. I think this is what made me the player that I am.

I was a part of the 2005 Oklahoma State Champion chess team that was only comprised of myself and one of my best friends. We took state as a team of two which is very hard to do and almost unheard of. To do this, we both won our first 4 games of the tournament and squared off in the championship which ultimately he won, but as a team we came out victorious.

Contact me if you want a relaxed environment with a tutor who will help you think your way to a better rating.

I have a Master's Degree from Oral Roberts University that signifies that I am a well-rounded person and am very capable of helping someone grow in a hobby that they have. I have little to no teaching experience; although, I did help coach a small group of kids during a summer golf camp. I am proficient at the game of chess and have logged over 1,500 games in 2016 on a chess website. My experience in the game alone would make me a good tutor.
