Professional chess instructor and competitive player helping students improve rapidly with structured lessons, strategy training, and personalized coaching.

Jeff teaches sooo well!
He’s really humble that he doesn’t go around bragging about how good he is, until you play him. And when you do, you’ll definitely want to learn from him.
I know this because we’ve been friends for a while.
And I also know that, whenever he commits to teaching someone, he won’t stop until the person is at least better than average.

Jeff doesn’t just play chess; he understands it at a level that shows discipline, patience, and deep thinking. He’s one of the most hardworking and intellectually grounded players I know, with a rare ability to see the game beyond the board.

What truly sets him apart is not just his skill, but his willingness to teach, guide, and build others, especially young people, through the game. If you’re looking for a chess instructor for your child or for yourself, Jeff is a choice you will not regret.
