About James

I am a chess player harking from South England, having played for the Cambridge University team and with tournament experience in all formats. I have aspirations to become a school teacher, and train up the most LEGENDARY secondary school chess team to beat all teams.

I have a stubborn belief that even the most board-game allergic, nerd-fearing, chess-hater can be not only converted by me, but also that I can get anyone to 1000 elo - an intermediate player far above average skill.

If you've ever wanted to improve your chess skills, your understanding of the game or you just want someone to guide you up that rating ladder, I'm the man!
