After that, i played in hundreds of tournaments online and offline placing 1st in many of them and lots of 2nd and 3rd places, nationally and internationally.

I believe in the saying "you can't teach what you don't know."
Currently i reached International master level in Fide Online Arena (AIM or Arena International Master) this year 2026.
I have been playing and teaching chess online in chess.com and lichess.org, some of the most popular chess sites, since 2005. I have beaten a lot of highly rated grandmasters, international masters, fide masters and highly-rated masters and non-masters on that site.
The highest rating I have reached for my blitz rating there is 2566 ( in ICC where i used to have regular lectures there which is managed by Lechessclub ) and 2400 in another popular chess site in chess.com. My username in chess.com, lichess.org and ICC is ChessOptimist.
Coaching Qualifications:
I have been teaching chess online since 2005 with students from all over the world like the U.S.A., Germany and from China but mostly my chess students are from the United States of America. For some time i stopped teaching chess due to other career options, but i have a renewed desire to teach again this year 2026 as a new Arena International Master.
My lessons are based on teaching my students first of all the basic principles and ideas in chess, from the opening to the middlegame up to the endgame.
"I focus more on teaching the principles and ideas behind every move which is the strongest foundation for any chess player" ChessOptimist
