Richard D.
Chess Teacher
Philadelphia, New York City
- My most advanced chess student and I have the same first name. After I taught him everything I know, he went on to win a number of tournaments against kids his age.
- I love football in any and every way! Playing, watching, and anything in between.
- I love hot cocoa! I have created flavors over the years. I now make over 20 flavors of hot cocoa.
I am someone who likes to bring joy to others. I and a lively and energetic person that derives great fulfillment from mentoring others. I was a chess instructor when I lived in Philadelphia. And I look forward to the opportunity to teach young ones in New Jersey and New York how much fun chess can be, while giving them some vital life tools for their future endeavors.
