Thank you very much for your kind words. I am pleased to work with you. Your knowledge of the Caro-Kann opening has improved significantly, as well as your calculation skills. Let's wait for your opponent to make mistakes; I think this strategy is starting to work well. I'm glad you are enjoying chess with me, and I am doing too.Your rating is increasing step by step, as I feel you are still quite underrated compared to your level and understanding of the game. So, let's aim for 1500 for now.

I've been working with Petra for the past three months and highly recommend her as a chess coach. I'm over 40 years old, a beginner chess player, and honestly have seen improvement in my play and understanding of the game. Ultimately, my goal is to play in an OTB FIDE tournament and achieve an official rating. Petra has helped me with selecting some openings for both white and black, some middle game strategy (usually through master games or personal game analysis), some end game technique, and regularly working on tactics. So slowly working on all phases of the game. She comes prepared to each lesson and has really helped to elevate my enjoyment of chess.
Thank you very much, Imre.
It's unusual for me to write in English since our classes are conducted in Hungarian. However, I want to express how happy I am to work with you. Your understanding of the game keeps improving, and your 1.d4 repertoire is becoming quite solid. You are also gaining a better grasp of the Nimzo-Indian Defense.
We have been doing a lot of calculation exercises, and I can see that your calculation skills are improving each time. Our short-term goal now is to reach a rating of 1600-1700.

Hi my name is Jose Rubio from Spain I’m 48 and I’m trying chess. It’s exiting but need guidance to find the right path to learn. It’s a lot of information online but it’s like a monkey jumping from one tree to another without knowing what I’m looking for. Also my son 8year old like to see me “ playing” and I would love him to learn but I’m not the right person to teach him. How can you help us if you accept the challenge and of course if you are available.
Thank you in advance
Jose

Petra is a fantastic chess coach.
Her training is well-structured, adaptable, and covers everything you need in just the right balance. She’s patient, insightful, and tailors each lesson to fit your strengths and weaknesses.
Every session is engaging, thought-provoking, and leaves me with something valuable to apply to my game.
Learning from her has been a great experience, and I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking to improve.
I am currently taking lessons with Petra and have done for the past 6 months or so. I can say with wholehearted confidence that she is a top notch chess instructor. Her opening knowledge is vast and her in depth analysis of games is highly impressive. I feel very lucky to be taking lessons under her. If you are looking for a skilled chess coach, look no further.
