About me

Hello! My name is Edoardo Di Benedetto, and I am an International Master.

Playing experience

I have been playing chess for 14 years and have gained extensive experience in major tournaments, including the European Chess Championship and many others. I have won the Italian U20 Championship multiple times, secured second place twice in the Italian Team Championship, won the Mitropa Cup in 2026 and played in the olympiad in the same year.

Teaching experience

With over 6 years of teaching experience, I have coached numerous students, helping them improve at all levels. I have worked with various chess clubs and am currently an active instructor at the biggest chess club in Florence (Firenze Scacchi).

Best skills

My specialties include:
- Endgame mastery
- Strategy and tactics
- Custom opening preparation upon request

Teaching methodology

In our first session, I usually play a game with the student to assess their strengths and weaknesses. Based on that, I provide tailored exercises or opening materials to study after the lessons.

If you're looking to enhance your skills and take your chess game to the next level, I’d be delighted to help you achieve your goals!
