About me
I am 27 years old and I am from Poland. Recently, I graduated from UTRGV with a Master's in financial planning. I have many hobbies besides playing chess, including sports and trading.
Playing experience
I started playing chess when I was 5 and became a grandmaster in 2013. My biggest successes as a player are:
-World Champion under 16 in 2010
- Runner-up in World Championship under 14 in 2009
- European Champion under 14 in 2009
- Polish Champion in 2019
- 4th place at the Olympiad with Poland in 2018
Additionally, I won 3 US National Championships with my teammates for UTRGV in 2018,2019, and 2021.

Teaching experience
I started teaching 5-6 years ago but I was also a very active player back then. Now, I want to focus more on coaching and less on playing.
Best skills
I believe my best chess skills are the overall understanding and positional skills. This is also my favorite part of the game.
Teaching methodology
Usually, I spend most of my time on game analysis. I think this covers all the elements of the game like opening, strategy, calculation, and very often endgame. Anyway, students can always request a specific topic that I can prepare. Also, I have some opening recommendations but generally, I am fine with what the students want to play and I can work around that.
