Saeed Mortazian

About Me

I am Saeed Mortazian, a first-class referee and coach of the Chess Federation. I have a degree in civil engineering and I have been teaching chess for about twenty years. I learned chess from the age of 9 with the encouragement and support of my father. Continuous communication, encouragement, persistence, and presenting progress charts of students in different parts of the country and around the world are the secrets of my coaching in this field. I do online training by sending links on Google Meet or other applications.

Teaching Method

My teaching method is based on the ICS or International Chess School method, which involves step-by-step training at each level, encouraging and motivating students to continue their journey. I create competition and challenge among students through various contests, whether solving exercises or facing two people or a team, to help them succeed in their learning path. I teach in Farsi and I know all the chess terms in English.
