Ask the Tiger

One of England's leading

List of Columns

Take A Look...

Learn more about Nigel Davies on
his biography page.
While you might expect to pay an arm and a leg for lessons
from such a strong and distinguished GM, nothing could be further from the
truth. Nigel offers telephone instruction, game annotations, and game
assessments designed to help you make the most of your chess
time by identifying areas of strength and weakness.
"Unlike most other
coaches I do not adopt the credo that 'one approach fits all' and I avoid
giving every student the same work and advice. In every case I will try to
gauge the right way forward for you as an individual. This is one of the
reasons that some of my students have been with me for 8 years."
