1. What will be taught?
I’ll teach the fundamentals of chess, including piece movements, basic tactics (such as pins, forks, skewers), and strategies (like controlling the center and piece development). We’ll also cover advanced topics like opening theory, endgames, and common checkmate patterns. I’ll ensure the course includes both theory and practical exercises to help you improve.

2. What topics will you cover?
Introduction to Chess: Board setup, pieces, and basic moves.
Tactics and Combinations: Pins, forks, skewers, discovered attacks, and tactical motifs.
Opening Principles: Developing pieces, controlling the center, king safety, and basic opening systems.
Middle Game: Planning, piece activity, pawn structures, and creating threats.
Endgames: King and pawn endings, basic checkmates, and important endgame principles.
Chess Notation and History: How to read and record games, and key historical milestones.
3. How is your class structured?
The class will be structured into progressive lessons, each focusing on specific themes or techniques. Each session will typically start with a lecture or demonstration on the topic of the day, followed by interactive exercises or games where students can apply what they’ve learned. I’ll ensure the pace suits the learner’s level, starting with fundamentals and gradually moving to more advanced concepts.

4. How will you teach?
I will use a blend of explanations, demonstrations, and interactive practice. The key is balancing theory with practical application. I’ll provide puzzles and challenges to help you solidify concepts and encourage learners to ask questions or play out scenarios. Using games and real-life examples from famous chess matches will also make the learning process engaging and memorable.

5. What's your teaching style?
My teaching style is supportive, interactive, and adaptive. I believe in hands-on learning, so I make sure to engage students with puzzles, interactive lessons, and even games with one-on-one feedback. I break down complex ideas into simple, digestible steps and encourage self-paced learning with plenty of room for practice.

6. How much will learners get to interact with you?
Students will have ample opportunity to interact with me. I encourage questions during lessons, provide personalized feedback, and hold practice sessions where I can directly observe and help students refine their play. I’ll be available for additional support outside of class if needed, whether through email, forum, or one-on-one sessions.

This approach helps ensure students not only understand theory but also gain practical experience to improve their skills.
