About Achyut
Hi! My name is Achyut Warrier, and I have been playing chess for around 20 years, and teaching for around 5. My highest rating was around 1800 USCF. I really have a love for the game, playing as much as I can, and even follow the game at a top level (Go Gukesh!). It is something that can be played at any age, and keeps the brain working! My goal is to help & inspire others to love the game as much as me. :)

Teaching method: I am a very patient teacher. Chess is easy to learn, but hard to master. It is very important for me to take the time to teach students, going over certain topics as many times as needed to make sure that student understands it. Creating a positive environment is essential for the student to learn, but more importantly, have fun with the game.
Typical lesson plan: Typically, I like to play a game or two to understand where a student is at with their chess ability. Afterwards, we will go into either 1. what the student wants to work on specifically or 2. What I feel like the student can work on. I am a very reactive teacher. For example, if we are working on a specific tactic, and during that lesson, the student or I find something else could benefit the student, I don't mind changing lesson plans, as long as we go back to the original lesson eventually.
What sets me apart: I really obsess over the game of chess. Whenever I have some free time, I bring out the chess.com app and play a few rapid or blitz games. I also had a few different mentors when I was learning the game. When I started teaching myself, I was able to use teaching techniques that they used on me.
Who the lessons are for: I like to teach beginners who are still relatively new to basic openings, middle game tactics/strategies, and commonly occurring endgames (Q+K vs K, R+K vs R, Pawn + K vs K, etc.)

Genuinely a very good teacher - I started with him as an absolute beginner and now I’m playing pretty well in leagues. He taught the fundamentals so well and is really able to fix the smallest details in my game that makes me play better immediately. I’ve recommended him to many of my friends and their kids who have all had great experiences at all different levels. Good price and amazing lessons!
Achyut has taught me tennis for 6 months and I feel much more comfortable playing with experienced athletes because of him. He is very patient and takes his time adapting his teaching technique to each individual he works with. I would highly recommend him to others to gain valuable support in elevating their tennis game.
