About Mina
Teaching exists because some minds sprint while others prefer the scenic route through complex patterns. Coaching over 500 students across 12 years has shown me that judgment matters just as much as knowing how to move pieces. I transitioned into education from industry and kept those rigorous habits intact.
Calculated blunder checking and board vision are my primary tools for progress. Having worked with diverse learners, I adapt my pacing to ensure clarity remains the goal. What specific part of your chess game currently holds you back from finding your flow?

Does your pawn structure collapse under pressure during the middlegame planning phase? This common frustration often stems from poor piece coordination rather than a lack of raw skill.
I apply my 8.0 rating framework to identify exactly where your decision making falters. My FIDE Instructor background guides how we break down time management and recording notation. We analyze games to build intuition for positional understanding rather than memorizing dry lines. Analyzing tactical mistakes together provides the most enjoyable path to improvement.
