About Ila
"Teaching, for me, centres on a direct approach where I break down the game into manageable parts. After 10 years of experience helping 127 students, I find that a competitive mindset is built through consistent, methodical practice.
I focus heavily on defensive technique and game analysis to help you avoid common traps. We will examine tactical patterns, middlegame planning, and opening principles to refine your board vision.
My sessions prioritise king safety and accurate recording and notation. You can expect a structured environment where we carefully review your blunder checking processes. This way, we focus on steady improvement rather than quick fixes."

"Good chess is just applied logic. I strip away the guesswork to show you the board as it actually exists. My 10 years of experience allow me to identify exactly where your decision-making falters during a game. We will systematically refine your defensive technique and middlegame planning, one move at a time.
I provide weekly curated puzzle sets to sharpen your tactical patterns outside of our scheduled time. It is a pleasure to help you grow your game, so please let me know when you are ready to begin."
