Chess

More than 3 years experience

I first learnt chess by watching people play, but then I got so interested in it that I actually got several books on chess and studied them in-depth. I've been playing Chess for more than 12 years, and was an active player at the Faculty of Engineering, University of Lagos.

I have taught chess informally at high school and undergraduate level, and was the lead chess player at Apata Memorial school, which led to the creation of chess club in the school. I still have some of my chess books which we would use while learning the game, so you can gain more insight.

Everyone I taught learnt chess well, some people got better than others, except a lady who wasn't patient to learn it through and stopped after the first lesson. Chess is such that you get better by playing better players. So I can teach you the tricks, but once you can beat me, then you'll need a better player.

Chess is a mind-opening game, and I've seen it applied to strategic planning in business and life; so I can say it's worth all the time and effort invested in learning it.
