My chess career already counts 20 years of experience. I have become a chess grandmaster at the age of 19. Since then I'm a member of the National Georgian chess Olympic team. During my chess career, I had plenty of memorable achievements: World youth chess champion under 16 (2002), Golden medal on 3rd board, and best performance at the European team chess championship (2015), Champion of Georgia(2008, 2015), World cup I passed 2 stages.

Best skills

As an experienced chess player. I can evaluate the needs of my students, and provide the relevant information properly. As a person, I'm communicative friendly always opened to any questions (even not chess-related). for me, it is important to have a friendly relationship with my students.

Teaching methodology

My teaching methodology is individual, it depends on my student's level of play and understanding of the game. every different level chess player requires a different approach. As for myself, I'm ready to share my experience and provide essential knowledge for my students.
