Teaching experience
Estoy buscando tener más experiencias como entrenador, siendo mi punto fuerte el lado teórico, el armado de aperturas y un repertorio solido para mis alumnos.
De igual manera, creo poder contribuir de buena manera desde el punto de vista táctico y estratégico.
Me adapto al estilo de mi alumno para poder explotar sus fortalezas y mejorar sus debilidades.
I am looking to gain more experience as a coach, and my strongest area is theory—opening preparation and building a solid repertoire for my students. I also believe I can contribute significantly from both a tactical and strategic point of view. I adapt to each student’s style in order to maximize their strengths and improve their weaknesses.

Best skills
Mi ajedrez está más influenciado por un juego posicional, dinámico. Aunque últimamente he intentado potenciar mi juego táctico para así lograr mejorar cada aspecto de mi ajedrez y conseguir un perfil ambivalente.
My chess is mostly influenced by positional, dynamic play. However, I have recently been working on strengthening my tactical play to improve every aspect of my chess and develop a more ambivalent profile. I focus on enhancing tactical vision, calculation, and improving my student’s repertoire, helping them feel confident with any position they may face on the board daily.

Teaching methodology
Me enfoco en mejorar la visión táctica, el calculo y mejorar el repertorio de mi alumno, que se sienta como con cada posición que pueda enfrentar en el tablero día a día.
Mi objetivo es que todo estudiante obtenga confianza en su juego, piense independientemente y luche cada partida.
La atención será personalizada con clases de una hora y media, y tendré un seguimiento semanal basado en tareas.
My goal is for every student to gain confidence in their play, think independently, and fight in every game.
The training will be personalized, with one-and-a-half-hour lessons and weekly follow-ups based on homework.
