About Aftab

I'm the Head Chess Coach at Don Bosco International School, Mumbai, and have taught chess in government schools across the city for over 5 years. I also coach individual students of all ages — from complete beginners to competitive players preparing for tournaments - both in-person in Mumbai and online with students from Canada, the US, the UK, and beyond.

I'm a FIDE-rated player with a Chess.com rapid peak rating of 2000, and I've competed at district, divisional, zonal, and interzonal levels.

Chess is something I've played professionally for over 10 years and genuinely love - I'm an active member of multiple chess clubs and regularly play with high-rated players.

About the lesson

I teach both online and in-person.

Online — I work with students internationally, including from Canada, the US, the UK, and other countries. If you're looking for a structured, reliable chess coach regardless of your timezone, feel free to reach out.

In-person (Mumbai) — I coach at international schools and offer private one-on-one sessions alongside my role as Head Coach at Don Bosco International School and government schools across the city.

I've built a structured curriculum based on my own experience learning and teaching the game. Classes are organised by level — Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced — and cover openings, tactics, puzzles, middle games, and endgames.

The core focus is calculation: visualization, pattern recognition, and creative thinking. That said, I always adapt to what you enjoy most — whether that's puzzles, live games, or theory. The goal is for both of us to enjoy the process.

First class is free — it's a chance to understand your goals before we commit to anything.

Perfect! Aftab is very passionate about chess and teaches in an effortless and structured manner. He has developed his own course material, yet adjusts the teaching speed and methodology according to the students' needs. I have taken multiple classes to date and looking forward to continuing the learning experience with Aftab.
