Introduction: I was trained as a Chess instructor by the Chess-in-the-Schools organization in 1995. I currently volunteer and teach children chess at the Larchmont Library. I’ve been a member of thumbtack providing my services since 2016. In regards to basic computer repair I consider it more of a humanitarian mission than a service. Helping computer users in need is my motto. Day or night. Note: I am not able to serve NJ at this time. My transportation is limited to NYC subway and bus service for now.

I've known Elvis for years. I first me him when we worked at Columbia University's National Center for Children in Poverty. He was chief technician, and most needed throughout the Center. He later helped me, and friends of mine whenever we needed any computer work. He always solved all our problems, and taught us a little about what we should know computer-wise. I highly recommend him for any IT work.

Elvis is a terrific chess instructor. His puzzles help develop the ability to see several moves ahead. He arrives with notes on what he wants to cover that day. Asks me to consult my notebook so we can review the things I learned in previous lessons. After three lessons, when I played with my husband, he commented on my Increased confidence, already. Elvis makes it clear that I can become a good chess player and I enjoy his company on the journey
