I am an experienced chess coach with over 15 years of exp. I know the scandanivian defense, multiple traps, strategies, openings and able to make chess a fun experience.

My lessons with Ismail have been very insightful. Through puzzle solving and discussion he teaches you not only what is the right move in various positions, but also why and how you can come to that conclusion. He helps you lay the foundation on which you can build your knowledge and understanding of chess further. As a person Ismail is friendly and extremely thorough. He cares about you and your improvement, and his passion for the game shines through in the lessons. I can't recommend him enough"
