About Blaine
Actually, I started teaching chess quite a long time ago, finding that king safety, endgame technique, and a competitive mindset form the bedrock of a solid game. After graduating with a Bachelor of Science in Statistics from Nanyang Technological University, I have spent 13 years teaching 487 students how to master opening repertoire building, pawn structures, board vision, recording and notation, tactical patterns, and game analysis. It is quite satisfying to watch a student develop a sharp, intuitive sense for the game over time.

You set the board up, and I place the pieces to demonstrate a specific tactical pattern that directly addresses your recent match performance. Because I hold a Bachelor of Science in Statistics, I analyze your games with a technical eye to spot patterns in your decision making. We focus on building an opening repertoire built for you, ensuring every move you make has a strategic purpose behind it. The process is steady and methodical, moving through complex board states while maintaining a calm, clear focus on your improvement.
