Enthusiastic chess player and tutor. I teach beginners and amateurs up to intermediate level. Highest ECF rating 162. Happy to teach remotely during current times, prefer 1 to 1 for maximum impact.

Ivan and I studied at the same colleague. He is a patient, calm and anytical tutor who had pointed out several of my weaknesses and provided valuable recommendations on how to mitigate or even elimate them. His tutorials were a real eye-opener for me and definitely improved my chess game.

Ivan is a great chess tutor! I'm a beginner and after just a few sessions with him I understand the game much better. I'm already much more confident and successful and I'm constantly improving my ranking thanks to Ivan's support! Highly recommend booking your first session with him!

My chess game has massively improved since taking lessons with Ivan. He’s a fantastic, paitent teacher and has a great eye for identifying my weaknesses. Other than being a great and natural teacher, he makes playing chess so much fun and brings a lovely sense of humour. Would recommend Ivan to anyone wanting to learn or improve their game whatever level, and doing so in a friendly and comfortable environment :)
