Hi! My name is Alex Fikiet, and I am a USCF Life Master with more than a decade of experience teaching chess at both the adult and scholastic level. Currently I am an elementary school chess teacher, and I provide private coaching to a large variety of ages and skill levels. I am proud to have been the coach of many top 100 scholastic players by age group, state and regional champions, and World Youth representatives.

As a coach, I believe its very important to not only learn new concepts and develop your strengths, but also to focus on removing weaknesses in your play. Each student I have has a personalized lesson plan to focus on those goals, and I make a great effort to explain advanced strategic concepts in a simple, digestible way

Remote lessons are priced at $100/hr. I recommend 1-2 hour sessions. "Trial" sessions are available at reduced price. If you are interested, let me know!
