About Sean

Chess is my greatest passion in life; my goal is for you to fall in love with the game and have as much fun learning as I do.

As one parent put it, “Taran absolutely loves Sean. He is always looking forward to his chess class. Sean knows exactly how to make the session both fun and most importantly educational. I highly recommend Sean for any child who is looking to learn chess.”

About the lesson

- Online or in Riverside -

I teach chess full-time to students of all ages and levels with a structured syllabus tailored to your strengths and weaknesses. Meetings start with a fun activity (a chess variant) followed by a lesson on a specific topic, then we'll play a game, analyze it together, and solve puzzles. You can also send me other games to analyze during the lesson, or pick your own topics like how to play a certain opening. I encourage everyone to do puzzles daily and look at the game review for your games.

Perfect! Sean is a gifted teacher to young and old alike. I am a 73 year-old grandfather. Trial lawyer by occupation. Very active person in my career and family life. I have a loving six-year-old grandson , as all grandfathers would say, he is quite bright. We stared taking chess lessons with Sean about two months ago. It has been a wonderful experience. Of special note is that Sean is extremely patient and nimble when it comes to dealing with a very active and precocious little boy. I have no hesitancy to give Sean the highest possible rating. He’s been a wonderful addition to the development of my precious little boy and his grandfather. 5+ stars for sure!

As a long time teacher, I have the ability to identify teaching skills. Sean is a very good teacher. I had watched an online chess course and it was way over my head so I thought chess wasn't for me. But within 10 minutes Sean dispelled all that, made learning fun, AND taught me more in an hour than I learned during HOURS of online classes. Highly recommend Sean!

As an adult relearning the game Sean has been incredibly patient and taken away all the intimidation related to learning a game that can at sometimes seem overwhelming.
I can't recommend him enough to help you get started on or hone your chess journey.
