Hi, this is National Master Kamran Rawshani. I started chess at 14, which is considered late by competitive standards, and reached National Master in just 3 years. In my first year alone I went from 1000 to 2000 ELO. Most players take a decade or more to hit this level. I did it during high school while earning over $35,000 in tournament winnings.

Peak USCF Rating (2273)

Peak FIDE Rating (2183)

My coaching centers around 1-on-1 training games, intuition, calculation, and building opening repertoires that fit your style. I believe improvement comes from personal will, hard work, and practical application, not just reading books or memorizing theory. We play, we analyze, we adjust, and you get better.

I've also trained with a former US Chess Olympiad Team Coach and U20 World Champion, which sharpened my approach to competitive preparation. Now I bring that same mindset to my students.
