I’ve been on/off chess since the age of 12. I always had a good foundation but Harut helped me see the board in a different way. My chess.com rating has increased from 800 something to around 1160 in less than three months. Money well spent.

My son is 10 and loves his chess lessons with Harut. He looks forward to it every week and says he’s learning a lot. Thank you Harut!

Magnificent teacher, wonderful lessons. Harut works hard to make sure it ALL makes sense and is visible on the board when you play. Easily the best investment in my chess future I've made in a long time. Incredible value!

I have had great chess lessons with Harut. He is very skilled at breaking things down conceptually for a beginner like myself. He also has deep chess knowledge that he ties into lessons so that you can grow beyond first principles.

Playing with Harut is my son’s expectation every week. He loves the way Harut to teach him and communicate. Through puzzle solving to get a right move in various position strategically Harut is helping him to construct the foundation on his chess knowledge. Harut is friendly and positive to encourage my son and inspire him to keep enthusiasm on chess learning.
