Background:
Let's focus on you! Your passion, dedication, and goals will pave the way, and I'm here to be your guide and mentor along your unique chess journey. Are you ready to begin? Your chess journey starts here! I'm Joy – a dentist, chess author, international player, FIDE-certified instructor, and the founder of The King's Gambit Chess Academy in Montreal. Students from across Canada, the US, Mexico, China, Australia, Iceland, and beyond learn and thrive in our welcoming academy. With 39 years of playing experience and 28 years of teaching chess, I'm passionate about guiding students of all ages and skill levels towards their chess goals.

Methodology:
A realm of logic, beauty, and history, chess is a world waiting to be explored! We'll delve into this enchanting world from every perspective: the science of strategy, the art of tactics and brilliant moves, the pure logic of openings and endgames, and the enthralling stories of legendary champions – from Morphy's dazzling sacrifices to Kasparov's relentless domination. While analyzing the games behind these captivating stories, drawing inspiration from the legends of the ancient royal game, from Philidor to Carlsen, some of these tales were even shared with me by the chess grandmasters themselves! All of this will be presented in interactive lessons tailored to each trainee's style, strengths, abilities, and even personality. The tools employed will be the most modern, high-end, and advanced chess software, databases, and platforms in the world.
