About Noel

I’m a chess tutor with over 2 years of experience and a Master’s degree focused on strategic thinking and game theory. I specialise in working with retirees who are eager to keep their minds sharp and explore a new hobby through chess. My teaching style is calm and patient, offering personalised attention to meet each student’s pace and interests. Together, we dive into the rich history of chess, discuss famous games and players, and explore classic strategies alongside practical gameplay. I believe learning chess is not just about moves, but about enjoying the intellectual challenge and storytelling behind every game. My lessons combine thoughtful analysis with hands-on practice to build confidence step by step. Whether you’re new to the game or returning after a break, I provide a welcoming space to rediscover chess’s endless rewards. I focus on nurturing your curiosity and helping you appreciate the beauty of each position and strategy. Learning chess can be a lifelong adventure, full of joy and mental growth. I’m here to guide you every move of the way.

My teaching approach to chess focuses on building strong foundational skills and practical strategies for real gameplay. I emphasise learning essential tactics, common openings, endgame principles, and positional understanding. Through targeted exercises and simulated matches, students develop confidence in their decision-making and pattern recognition. I use scenario-based drills to practise recognising threats and opportunities quickly. I’m especially skilled at working with beginners and casual players who want to improve their game thoughtfully. We focus on sharpening your ability to read the board, anticipate your opponent’s moves, and plan several steps ahead. With steady practice, you’ll gain both tactical skill and strategic insight. Together, we break down complex positions into simple, clear ideas that are easy to grasp. I provide personalised feedback and encouragement to help you progress steadily. Whether you’re playing for fun or preparing for competitions, I’m here to help you unlock your potential and enjoy the rich, rewarding world of chess.
