About Asiman
Hello! My name is Asiman. I am an active competitive chess player with an online Elo of approximately 2200 and a senior student majoring in Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence at KAIST.
My background in engineering deeply shapes my teaching style. I approach chess as a system of logic and pattern recognition rather than rote memorization. This ensures my lessons are highly structured, practical, and focused on delivering measurable rating improvement.
Professionalism and patience are my top priorities. I create a calm, encouraging environment tailored to your specific goals, whether you are a beginner learning the fundamentals or an intermediate player stuck at a frustrating plateau. I teach fluently in English, Azerbaijani, and Turkish, ensuring complex tactical concepts are always easy to understand.

Hello, my name is Asiman! I am an advanced, active competitive chess player with an online ELO of approximately 2200. With a heavy academic background in Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence from KAIST, I approach chess not just as a game of rote memorization, but as an exercise in logic, pattern recognition, and algorithm-like calculation. I am fully fluent in English, Azerbaijani, and Turkish, allowing me to clearly communicate complex ideas to a diverse range of students. My Teaching Method and Techniques:My teaching philosophy centers on "practical play" and algorithmic thinking. Memorizing 15 moves of deep opening theory is useless if you don't understand the underlying middle-game plans. Instead, I focus on:Algorithmic Calculation: I will teach you how to systematically scan the board for checks, captures, and threats on every single move so you permanently stop dropping pieces.Post-Game Autopsies: We learn best from our failures. I place a massive emphasis on analyzing your actual games rather than just looking at famous grandmaster matches.Technology Integration: I utilize modern chess software and interactive digital study boards to instantly render positions and make our sessions highly visual and engaging.A Typical Lesson Plan (60 Minutes):Warm-Up (10 mins): We start by solving 3-5 curated tactical puzzles tailored specifically to mistakes you made in your previous games.Deep-Dive Game Analysis (25 mins): The core of our lesson. We will dissect your recent games. I won't just tell you the right move; I will guide your thought process so you find it yourself.Concept Focus (15 mins): We will isolate and explore a specific theme—such as exploiting a weak pawn structure, understanding an opening trap, or mastering a fundamental endgame technique.Practical Application & Homework (10 mins): We will play a quick training game from a specific position, and I will assign targeted puzzles to reinforce the day's lesson.
