Online & In-Person Coaching
Master your next move, not just the next game.
Personalized strategy, honest feedback, and coaches who are still actively rated players themselves — so what you learn holds up across the board.
Our Philosophy
We focus on what moves your rating.
A lot of academies will promise you grandmaster status overnight, or hand you a syllabus so dense in theory you’ll never use half of it in a real match.
We do things differently. We speak your language, keep lessons straightforward, and focus purely on the strategies that turn into real wins on the board — not just impressive answers in a classroom.
Every plan starts with a diagnostic: we watch you play, find where you lose games, and build backward from there. No fixed curriculum, no recycled slides — just a plan built around your blind spots.
Four ways we train you —
pick what your game needs.
Most students combine two or more as their rating climbs.
01 / Private Coaching
One-on-one sessions
Tailored to your exact skill level. We identify your blind spots and build a practical roadmap to elevate your rating, session by session.
02 / Group Workshops
Collaborative learning
Analyze master games, practice common endgames, and test strategies against peers in a focused small-group setting.
03 / Tournament Prep
Competition-ready training
Build a solid opening repertoire, learn to manage your clock under pressure, and train specifically for the format you’re entering.
04 / Game Analysis
In-depth match reviews
We break down your critical blunders and missed opportunities, move by move, so you never make the same mistake twice.
Why Queensight
Most academies teach chess.
We build match-ready minds.
The difference shows up on the scoreboard, not the syllabus. Here’s what separates a Queensight player from the rest of the field.
Coaches rated 1700+
Every coach on our roster competes above 1700 themselves — many well into the 1800s and 1900s. You’re learning from active, rated players, not retired theory.
Minimum bar: 1700 rating to teach here
Built around your blind spots
No fixed curriculum applied to everyone. We diagnose where you actually lose games, then build a plan around closing that specific gap. Progress gets reviewed every session, so nothing sits unaddressed for weeks.
Plans rebuilt every 4 weeks
Tournament-tested methods
What we teach has been used by our own coaches in competitive play — not lifted from a textbook. If it doesn’t hold up over the board, we don’t teach it.
Real games, not just puzzles
