Andrew, I believe, is the perfect chess tutor for my 7 year-old son. Andrew was patient in his instruction of my "antsy" little guy (via Skype and Chess4Net), but also entertaining and playful, which is important for the elementary age group. Also, I often had to assist my son with answering questions Andrew asked him, and keeping track of notated moves when reviewing his past games, and Andrew didn't seem to mind my "butting in" to the lesson. I would highly recommend Andrew as a chess tutor. He is knowledgeable and fun.
