About Philip

I have 3 years of experience teaching chess to beginner and intermediate players. I am a FIDE-rated player (1845) and have represented the Kuala Lumpur State Team at MSSM six times. My competitive achievements include:
-1st place with Best Board (Team) in MSSM 2014 and 2016
-4th place (Team) in MSSM 2015
-11th place (Individual) in MSSM 2017
-8th place (Individual) in MSSM 2019
-11th place in the 46th Selangor Open Chess Championship

This competitive background allows me to teach not only theory but also practical tournament skills and decision-making under pressure.

My teaching approach focuses on building a strong foundation, clear thinking and practical application. For beginner players, I emphasize understanding the basic rules, piece coordination, opening principles and fundamental tactics such as pins, forks and checkmates. For intermediate players, lessons shift toward positional understanding, calculation skills, middlegame planning and endgame techniques.

I use a structured yet flexible methodology, combining:
-Game analysis (student games and master games)
-Thematic tactical training
-Step-by-step explanation of ideas instead of memorization
-Regular practice exercises and feedback

Lessons are interactive and students are encouraged to ask questions and think independently. I also assign optional homework or training tasks to reinforce learning between sessions.
