In 2011, I became the Champion of Ukraine at the prestigious tournament "Belaya Ladya" in the city of Kamyanets-Podilskyi, and it was an unforgettable moment in my career.
In 2012, I took first place at the Sinitsyn memorial tournament in the city of Dnipro, where I was able to show my best game and confirm my professional level.
In subsequent years, 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2019, I participated in master tournaments in Kherson and Nikolaev, where I gained valuable experience in playing against strong opponents and improved my skills.
In 2020 and 2021, I participated in the prestigious Independence Cup tournaments in Kyiv, which came as a surprise to me, and I aspired to win at a high level.

In addition to that, I took part in more than 100 prize tournaments throughout Ukraine, which gave me many valuable lessons and helped me develop as a chess player.

My experience is over 3 years.
For many years I have been teaching chess with great pleasure.
My teaching experience includes working with children and adults of all ages and skill levels.

Strategic Thinking: Chess is a game of strategy, and the ability to develop long-term plans and understand positional principles is key to successful play.

Tactical Accuracy: Keen tactical vision allows you to spot combos, forks, and other tactical motives to help you gain advantage on the board.

Endgame Knowledge: Knowing how to work in the endgame is extremely important as it can decide the outcome of the game. Knowing the basic techniques and methods of the endgame helps to turn an advantage into a victory.

Psychological stability: Chess is not only a struggle of pieces on the board, but also a struggle of minds. Players must have the mental toughness to remain calm and make rational decisions in stressful situations.

My teaching methodology is based on an individual approach to each student, taking into account his level of play and goals.
I try to create interesting and understandable lessons that help my students not only improve their game, but also enjoy the learning process.
Over the years of teaching, I have seen my students grow and achieve significant success in chess.
My extensive teaching and tournament experience gives me the opportunity to convey not only the technical aspects of the game, but also the important skills of stress management, concentration and decision making on the board.
