A little about myself:

I am IM Sammed Jaykumar Shete from Maharashtra, India. I have been playing rating tournaments since 2010. After I reached a 2100 rating in 2014, I started training myself. and it took me 5 years after that to become an IM. After that, I managed to get 1 GM norm and raise my live rating to 2480. I know how difficult it is to train by yourself. It would have been much easier if I had a personal chess coach to guide the way. If you want to improve your chess, I am here to help you.

Here are some of my achievements.

* In India's Top 100
* First GM Norm in First Saturday Budapest 2023
* Joint Second in Dubai Open 2022 along with Pragnananddha and 3 others 
* I came in the top 6 in a lot of age group national tournaments.
* Winner of Zadar Open 2023
* I have won numerous rapid tournaments.

I have been teaching for the past 7 years in different countries and different age groups. It all comes down to middle-game skills, tactical ability, and calculation in the end. Almost all of my students have shown substantial growth in these areas. My current students are around rated 1000 to 2100. Anyone can improve quickly, given the right lessons. I offer personalized chess lessons. I see the games of the student and study his style, mistakes, and weaknesses. After that, I built a program to work to solve these problems and improve his skills.
