About Joel
Growing up on the small island of Saipan, where chess players were rare, I spent my childhood hooked on the game, playing all day on the Free Internet Chess Server (FICS) - one of the first online chess servers ever! Life's journey eventually took me to South Korea, where I moved from online play to the competitive world of international tournaments and elite academy coaching. I have 5 years of experience teaching chess - including coaching members of the South Korean Youth National Chess Team.

I typically do 60 minute online/in-person lessons.
Typical Lesson Content:
Warm-up with a interesting position/puzzle.
Game Analysis and/or Strategy: Reviewing your games to correct mistakes and improve decision-making. Learning about opening/middle-game/endgame techniques.
Practice Game: Games with players of a similar strength where we discuss thought process as we go.
*Note on Tactics: To maximize our time, I expect students to practice puzzles independently so we can focus on strategy and analysis during our sessions. I can offer tips on how to practice tactics, and give tactic homework as well.

Expertise in both 1-on-1 private tutoring and elite academy coaching.
I love working with students who have a true passion for the game and are ready to take their skills to a competitive level.

My 8 year old daughter studied with Joel, and it worked out really well. Joel took his time to explain things thoroughly and was extremely patient with her. She is usually very shy, but had a lot of fun learning with Joel. I strongly recommend studying chess with Joel.
