With Bachelor's and Master's degrees from the National University of Singapore (NUS) in Singapore and a Doctorate from the Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech) in Atlanta, GA, USA, Dr. JZ is no stranger to hard work and determination.

My chess lessons follow the teachings of the Soviet School of Chess, founded by GM Mikhail Botvinnik, the sixth World Chess Champion and one of the most influential figures in chess history. This methodology emphasizes a comprehensive, strategic approach to all stages of the game, ensuring that you develop a deep understanding of every phase — from the opening to the middlegame and to the endgame.
Each lesson will begin with a training game played against me, Dr. JZ. After that, we will analyze the mistakes made and discuss ways to improve. The second half of the lesson will focus on the underlying theories and principles that govern sound chess openings, middlegame tactics, and endgame strategies.
At the end of each lesson, a video recording of all these activities, along with any additional materials, will be made available to you, allowing you to review and reinforce the concepts and strategies we covered at your own pace.
