About Massimiliano
My name is Massi and I learnt to play chess with my grandfather at the age of 6: it was love at first game!
From the age of 11 I self-taught chess with my father's book, learning all the rules, basic openings, some tactics and simple endgames. My school teacher was a great help, analysing classic games from great chess players, from Philidor to Fischer. I started to play school tournaments, then regional and national team events, in school as well with the local club. I also participated in many open international tournaments in Italy and abroad, with standard, rapid and blitz time control. Soon after breaking the 2000 FIDE rating mark, I eventually retired from playing OTB rated tournaments, preferring to play online or OTB in parks and with friends for fun.
With almost 20 years of experience teaching chess in schools, one-on-one private lessons, in person and online, I guided hundreds of players of any age from kindergarten to adults and up to 2100 FIDE rated. I also did private coaching and mentoring for tournament preparation, with specific opponent opening repertoire analysis, middle game themed training games and hard core end game memorization.
Fluent in English, French and Italian, I can provide chess lessons in any of those languages.
I enjoy to play and work with passionate people, spreading the love for this beautiful art/game/sport called chess!
