Man, what can I say about Ben that hasn't already been said? Phenomenal coach who has been patient and flexible every step of the way. Ben helped reinforce the basics I was lacking and built-up confidence in my chess. I have changed the way I approach each game and each move. Ben does a great job assessing you as a student, and tailoring his lessons to your needs, or what you feel needs improvement. The best part? None of his lessons were ever boring, I was always looking forward to our weekly sessions. Whether showing off my improvement or to highlight an embarrassing blunder, Ben helped find improvement every time. Cannot recommend working with Ben enough.
Dear Kyle,
Thank you for the review. Your kind words mean a lot to me! You have improved so much and you were able to achieve what you wanted to by practicing and listening to my advice. It was so awesome seeing you make better and better moves each time. I know it's only the beginning for you!
Ben has been an invaluable guide in my chess journey. He possesses an extraordinary depth of knowledge about all aspects of chess and has patiently adapted his coaching to my unique needs. His thorough analysis of both my black and white openings has led to remarkable improvements of my game. Most importantly, Ben has taught me how to properly analyse positions and has guided me on refining my thought process in general. Thanks to the techniques he has taught me I have managed to also improve my middle and end games, which especially pays off to me in longer time controls. Ben put his focus on the areas where I need the most improvement and has a strong preference to analyse my losses over my wins. This can be quite painful... but hey, no pain, no gain. Luckily , Ben's sense of humour makes learning enjoyable, I feel truly fortunate to have such an exceptional coach by my side.
