knowledgeable and patient teacher
Hannibal was good at effectively communicating the basic ideas and points to our 7yo, and conveying the logic behind the ideas. He is also quick in responding to questions and comments, showing his well-around knowledge of the game. Great first lesson.

Beginner chess
Easy teaching style and was helpful in answering questions. I learned how many chess pieces are there on each side ; names of different pieces ; also learnt different values of each chess piece as well as how each chess piece moves across the board . We had mini-practice sessions in which we reviewed the different direction In which a pawn moves as compared to a bishop as compared to a knight as compared to a rook as compared to a queen as compared to the King.
