Instructor Details

Robert Gumerlock

I have been coaching chess for the last 3 years at the Boys and Girls club at Monterey, and have been playing chess for over 50 years. In that time I have played Grandmasters (and lost), played blindfolded games, and had many a chess rival. It is one of my greatest hobbies, and one of the subjects that I have the most extensive knowledge of.

I watched the Netflix series The Queens Gambit and was drawn back to the game of chess I last played over thirty years ago, I needed revision, my daughter very kindly found me this course.

By Sophie Becking on 9/15/2020

Fijne manier van uitleggen, met een heerlijk relaxed muziekje op de achtergrond. Ook de redenen waarm een stuk veel waard is is fijn.

There are some mistakes in the course and the beginners will not understand why and might leave this beautifull game wich is the Chess !

By Leslie Eric Murphy on 8/17/2020

So far I like this. But I dont understand why there has to be a musical soundtrack in the background for an educational course. Its jus distracting.

By Anish Kalwar on 8/11/2020

Easy to understand tutorials. Awesome, that's what i needed.

By Vaggelis Gargoulakis on 8/4/2020

In my opinion, this course is a great begging for a new and ambitious chess player.
I had almost no Idea of how playing chess. Thanks to Mr Robert, I am now more confident and motivated to go to the next level.
