About the tutor

Hi there! I’m Het Shah, a passionate tutor on a mission to make learning chess fun and engaging for students at all levels. With a Masters in Computer Science, I bring a unique perspective to the world of games. My teaching philosophy revolves around making complex concepts simple and relatable. I believe in creating a supportive learning environment where students are encouraged to ask questions and think critically. Let’s explore the world of chess together! I am a passionate and dedicated chess player with a deep love for the game. Having won several chess tournaments, including being an inter-college chess champion, I have gained valuable experience both as a competitor and a student of the game. I regularly study chess theory and enjoy analyzing Grandmaster games to continually improve my understanding of strategies and tactics. My goal is to share my knowledge and enthusiasm for chess with others, helping students of all levels unlock their full potential. Whether you're just starting out or looking to refine your skills, I’m here to guide you on your chess journey.
