Private Coaching

Private coaching the most effective and time efficient option if you want to develop and improve your chess skills.

One-on-one lessons allow the student to ask many questions and learn new techniques and methods at his or her own pace. It also allows the teacher to tailor the curriculum to the individual student.

Rohit has been having lessons with Roman for the last year and a half. He makes lessons enjoyable and works extremely well with challenging kids. I've seen his rating rise from 1200 to 1900 on lichess and hope that he gets to a good level in the near future.

Even though he is already an intermediate/advanced, player he still learned a lot from Roman in his first online lesson. He went through some of his recent games before the class, showing preparation and managed to recommend training ideas and move his development further

I've been having lessons with UKCC for the last year. I wanted to have coaching because I started watching The Queens Gambit on Netflix and thought it was incredible how a young girl can have such great ambitions. My rating has improved gradually and I'm really enjoying my lessons!

My son really enjoys his lessons with Roman. He liked how he had to think of variations and that Roman saw lots of combinations before he did. Roman took the time to analyse some games in advance. Recommended and we'll definitely do more lessons this summer.
