🔰 Bruce Pandolfini is an American chess author, teacher, and coach. A USCF national master, he is generally considered to be America’s most experienced chess teacher. As a coach and trainer, Pandolfini has possibly conducted more chess sessions than anyone in the world.
In his books and columns he has explained his methodology for individual instruction, indicating that it consists of four basic parts.
▪️ Regular review of the student’s games and play;
▪️ Constant practice and examination without moving the pieces;
▪️ Gradual mastery of endgame basics and fundamentals;
▪️ Step-by-step instilling of the analytic method.
The latter he achieves by relentlessly posing relevant questions, until the student absorbs the process of determining reasonable options and making logical choices.
By the summer of 2015 he had given an estimated 25,000 private and group lessons. Pandolfini's playing career ended in 1970 after a loss to Grandmaster Larry Evans at the National Open in Las Vegas in 1970. After his final tournament game, his official USCF rating was 2241.
