We are so grateful to have Yao Lan as our son’s chess tutor! Under her guidance, he has improved by over 500 points in his FIDE rating — an incredible achievement. Yao Lan is not only highly knowledgeable but also wonderfully patient and kind with children. She makes each lesson engaging and helps build both confidence and passion for the game. We couldn’t recommend her more highly!
