Hi,

I am Gabor Horvath, a professional chess coach with 10+ years coaching experience. I was selected as Coach of the Month on Chess.com in February 2020.

Feel free to contact me if you:

• Hit a plateau with your own chess or feel that your progress is not as quick as it should be
• Feel that your chess training could be more effective
• Want to learn a more disciplined way of thinking so you avoid the most common mistakes in the thinking process
• Unsure what your weaknesses are and what areas to work on
• Need help to build and train your opening repertoire
• Want to play the middle game better
• Want to improve your practical endgame skills
• Are looking for a patient and reliable coach for your child

I can help you:

• Identify your recurring mistakes and get rid of them with specific training
• Learn to apply a principled way of thinking to find the best moves
• Learn effective training methods, so you know how to make the most of your studying time
