FIDE Master (Peak Elo 2401) Level Up Your Chess with a Pro Hi there! I'm a FIDE Master and one of the Head Instructors for the Italian Chess Federation. I have tons of experience as both a competitive player and a coach. I even made it to the finals of the Italian Absolute Championship in 2021 and hit a peak Elo of 2401, with an International Master norm to my name. One of my proudest moments was beating GM Solodovnichenko (Elo 2629). I'm super passionate about teaching. I’ve served as a Regional Junior Delegate and have helped guide many talented young players from Liguria to the finals of the Italian Youth Championship. I’ve also organized tournaments and worked with local libraries to promote chess. On top of that, I’ve been an official commentator for the Italian channel of chess.com and have even done opening theory preparations with some incredible Grandmasters like Jobava, Dreev, and Martinez Alcantara. My online lessons are available for both individuals and groups, and they cover everything: Deep dives into classic and modern games to break down key strategic and tactical ideas. Analyzing your own games to pinpoint and fix your weak spots. Customized exercises and book recommendations to help you master new concepts. Whether you want to focus on a specific area, prepare for a tournament, or simply improve your game, I'll tailor my lessons to suit your level and goals. Get in touch!
