I have very good knowledge regarding the following two openings: Benoni and Najdorf Variation. Both of them i have been playing for over 8 years. I continuously study endgames hence i consider them very important. I prefer positional chess over tactical however building imagination in chess is very important.

I usually teach lessons on Zoom or Skype but i am open to any other alternative applications.
First of all, i believe it's important to know my students weaknesses in order to improve their skills and of course guide them on what they you should practice individually.
Second of all, a relationship of mutual trust is required between the student and coach in order to achieve great results.
