I've played chess for over 10 years and coaching for the last 7. I've won 7 state championships, ranked as the #80 U18 player in the US, and am rated 2000 under USCF and 1900 FIDE

Hi, I'm Ethan, an undergraduate student at Northwestern University. I started playing chess when I was in 3rd grade, and have been playing ever since! In the course of my chess career, I've won 7 stat... e championships, ranked as the #80 U18 player in the US, and played for the Northwestern University A Team. I'm currently rated 2000 under USCF and 1900 under FIDE. Additionally, I've been coaching for the past 7 years (both in-person and online), working with both young students (ages 5+) and adults of varying skill. I try to focus my lessons on the specific aspects of chess where the student needs help, thus assisting them in their growth as a chess player, while being a fun and patient teacher in the process. I try to as flexible as possible in my lessons, so please let me know if there's something specific you would like to work on or other resources/suggestions. Feel free to contact me with additional questions or to schedule a lesson!read more
