Perfect! Suzanna clearly knows how to engage young children. She takes full control of the lesson's pace, which allows me to step back and let her lead. Her lessons are highly structured—this works perfectly for my 7-year-old son, who usually struggles to stay focused.

Perfect! I’ve really enjoyed working with Suzanna so far. It’s been a long time coming for me to finally sit down and take proper chess lessons, and she’s been great about building things from the ground up without making it feel overwhelming.

We’ve spent time on the fundamentals, classic positions, and, especially, recognizing tactical patterns. One thing I really appreciate is how much she focuses on speed—training my eye to spot tactics quickly, not just eventually figure them out. That’s already starting to carry over into my games.

Her teaching style is straightforward, easy to follow, and very practical. No fluff—just clear explanations, good examples, and useful feedback. The homework and practice suggestions she gives are also spot-on, and I can tell they’re helping me make real progress.

All in all, I feel like I’m on a solid path to improving my rating, and that’s exactly what I was hoping for when I started. I’m very happy with the lessons and would definitely recommend Suzanna to anyone serious about getting better at chess.

Perfect! Suzanna is a great teacher! She is very organized which is awesome for beginners. She uses puzzles and other online resources for teaching which is very hands-on and doable as well. I would recommend her!
