IM Luis Torres

Hey! I’m Luis Torres, an International Master based in Lubbock, TX, with a passion for helping chess enthusiasts build up their skill. Over the last 3 years, I have focused all my efforts on helping people (and myself) improve at chess. During this time, I’ve discovered that most people need to “forget to learn” to find their unique effective approach to the game.

If you’re seeking personalized coaching, don’t hesitate to contact me! I enjoy guiding my students through the difficult but rewarding journey of chess improvement.

Some of my most memorable results:

Collegiate Final Four 2017 2/3 (Top scorer of the team) - 2nd place with Texas Tech
2013 World Chess Olympiad-4th board of the Mexican Team
Mexican Absolute Co-champion in 2013
Mexican Youth Championships (U12-U18)-More than 15 gold medals
North American Youth Chess Championship 2007 U12 - 1st place

My coaching is personable. I will analyze your latest games to craft a plan just for you. Additionally, I will assist you in establishing a structured routine to speed up your progress. After each lesson, training material will be assigned for a continuous learning experience. Recognizing that every individual possesses distinct strengths and weaknesses, my role is to pinpoint areas for improvement that will propel you to the next level.

Don't wait any longer to level up your chess skills. Reach out today, and let's embark on this exciting journey together!
