Hello, my name is Reece Thompson. I'm currently a senior at Georgia Tech and my major is business with a concentration in finance.
I've taught chess ever since I was 11 years old, when I became a junior coach for a after-school program in Georgia called Kidchess.
I enjoy teaching chess especially to children because I love giving back to the community. It brings me great joy to help someone who has the same passion that I did when I was younger.
I've taught mostly children but I also have experience teaching many adults. I teach all ages and experience levels up to 1600 USCF ranking. I want to help you reach the next level in your chess development! Please send me a message if you're interested in lessons (either online here or in person near Marietta, Georgia).
