Misha is an entertaining person, very nice and effective. I made progress almost instantly after having a bunch of lessons with him. Endgames, middlegames, and openings seem a lot easier to me now thanks to him. His enthusiasm when I was learning with him made things nicer and greater. He's an incredible coach and I'm very happy I met him. I recommend him, no matter what your skills are!!

I was looking for a professional coach since my progress from self-learning was slowing down.
Misha has helped me not only to greatly boost my performance but also showed me the game from the angles I doubt I'd discover myself.
He is a patient teacher with a great personality and passion for the chess he shares with his students.
What else to say: highly recommended!

Misha is a great trainer. I have been training with him once a week for two years now. I am now stronger than I was before my 20 years of chess break! He had some self-made, but professional learning studies on lichess for standard topics (e.g. for openings) and custom-tailored training studies for me.
