About Head Coach

FIDE Certified Lead Instructor (Lecturer)

World Chess Federation Accreditation & Chess in Education Commission

My name is Jeganathan, and I am a former Cloud Engineer turned passionate chess educator.

I hold the prestigious title of FIDE Chess Lead School Instructor (Lecturer) (LSI), certified by the International Chess Federation (FIDE) & Chess in Education Commission, with nearly 15 years of experience in coaching. My journey in chess began during my school years, where I secured first-place positions in several competitions. This success paved the way for my participation in district, state, and national-level tournaments.

 

Over the years, I have had the privilege of teaching a diverse group of students, ranging from ages 4 to 15, including high-profile individuals. My coaching spans both India and international locations, with a carefully tailored syllabus to suit various skill levels. Many of my students have gone on to excel in state and national-level chess competitions.

Teaching chess is not just my profession but a passion that drives me to inspire young minds, guiding them to think critically and enhance their IQ through the strategic brilliance of the game.
