•Tactical + strategic exercises
• Middle-game planning + endgame technique
• Tournament preparation + mindset coaching
• Ongoing game review — to track your growth and fix weaknesses

What a Typical Lesson Looks Like
The first thing we’ll do is doing chess puzzles analysing different positions because that is the basis to improve in chess. Then we will start by studying a relevant game, usually one connected to the opening you’re currently learning. As we analyze the position, we’ll naturally explore tactical themes, strategic plans, and endgame transitions. If you’ve played any games during the week, we’ll review them together and I’ll answer any questions you have. By the end of your first 6–7 lessons, you’ll feel confident navigating key opening ideas, recognizing patterns, and playing with greater clarity and confidence.

Tommaso is an awesome chess tutor! He explains things clearly and makes each lesson super engaging. I’ve improved so much since starting with him. He’s patient, really knows his stuff, and helps you think strategically. I’d definitely recommend him to anyone wanting to get better at chess.
I had an incredibly positive experience with Tommaso’s patience and expertise. He is a very professional and knowledgeable person who immediately makes you feel at ease.
Tommaso is a super chill guy with great patience who I'd reckon make a great chess tutor. He also knows chess very well (though always loses against me). Would definitely recommend anyway.
Chill guy with good patience who I'd reckon make a great chess tutor. He knows chess very well too.
Conosco Tommaso ormai da 6 anni, da quando ci siamo incontrati per la prima volta il primo giorno del ginnasio. Tommaso è molto bravo a giocare a scacchi, dopo che ha iniziato per diletto durante gli anni della pandemia ha approfondito i suoi studi diventando un ottimo scacchista e buon insegnante.

I have known Tommaso for 6 years now, ever since we first met on the first day of gym. Tommaso is very good at chess, after he started for fun during the pandemic years he deepened his studies and became an excellent chess player and good teacher.I highly recommend Tommaso as a chess instructor. With his deep experience and engaging personality, he makes learning both enjoyable and meaningful. Tommaso has a rare gift for explaining complex strategies in simple terms, often drawing on vivid analogies from everyday life or even horse racing to bring each move to life. His teaching goes beyond memorization, he helps you truly understand what you’re doing and why
I have known Tommaso for 6 years and I think he’s one of the most reliable and trustworthy man because of his great humility and availability. He is very competent and, when it’s time to help other people, he doesn’t hold back. His kindness and patience, for those who will decide to join his initiative, are among the first qualities that will emerge!
I am proud to write this recommendation for my friend Tommaso, he is my chess buddy and coach at the same time. throughout our time playing chess, He is very insightful towards different kinds of chess opening and has his own unique style of teaching. Tommaso is a very observant and careful player where his strength lies on observing nuances move in a game, which often allow him to replies with a strong, powerful move. He expertises in : playing slowly and wisely for every single move, this is also what i learn the most from him and I would say this is a very useful strategy for every player to learn from.
If you are looking for a patient and friendly coach , i can confirm that Tommaso is the right coach for you , he would definitely guide you to achieve new goals while bringing more fun and growth in your chess journey!
I highly recommend Tommaso and am looking forward to continue to learn from him:)
Tommaso is an exceptionally bright chess player and a patient teacher with his enthusiastic teaching style. With his burning passion for chess and overall love for the game, he makes a great tutor and chess player for anyone learning to improve themselves in chess. Playing and learning alongside Tommaso has been a lively and incredibly useful experience in improving myself in chess. I would recommend him as a chess tutor or teacher anywhere.
I would definitely recommend Tommaso as a chess instructor based on my own experience. He began teaching me around one year ago, and has improved my chess skills a lot in that time. He enhanced my skills and mindset in order to get me from a chess.com rating of 1000 to 1400. He is very kind and patient in addition to being smart and intellectual which makes him a great instructor because he can teach based on how the other person understands and is comfortable with.
