Hello! My name is Garnik. I am a chess coach with 10 years of coaching experience and an engineering background. I started competing at an early age and achieved strong results in regional and national tournaments in Armenia, including championship titles and prize finishes in adult competitions. As a coach, I focus on structured training, clear explanations, and a systematic approach to learning. I work with children, teenagers, and adults, helping students not just memorize moves, but understand chess, think logically, and make confident decisions over the board. I prepare students both for confident recreational play and for tournament participation, adapting the training process to each student’s level, goals, and pace of development.
