Hello everyone,

My name is Jon Rigai and I've been playing the game of chess for 29 year's, 13 year's professionally and teaching the game for 13 year's too. I use a free flowing logical style which helps me to motivate and teach my students accordingly. Their success over the board while implementing my style of play is very rewarding. My personal philosophy in chess is that ''The best defense is a good offense''. What that basically means is that if you know how to attack in chess, you'll almost never need to defend yourself while you're playing a chess game. This style of play is highly effective and has been shown to help students immensely with their play over the board. I'll be happy to help your child explore the wonders that this amazing game has to offer. The main benefits your child will attain are the following: 1. Improvement in critical thinking skills. 2. Improvement in analytical logic. 3. Being able to always stay calm under pressure. 4. Improvement in creative thinking. 5. Improvement in visualization and spacial relationship of the pieces to one another.
