NM Isaac Wiebe

My name is National Master Isaac Wiebe. I am a late bloomer to chess, in which I have always loved playing chess, but did not take training and development seriously until I was 19 years old. I went from 1520 national rating to 2220 in approximately 1.5 years. I would like to share my training methods to the world!

My tournament victories in reverse chronological order are:
2024 National Capital Open (Ottawa) tied 2nd
2023 Championnat Ouvert de Laval (Laval) tied 2nd
2022 National Chess Congress U2200 (Philadelphia) tied 1st
2019 Winnipeg Open (Winnipeg) 2nd
2019 Manitoba Provincial Champion
2018 Manitoba Provincial Champion
2017 Winnipeg Open (Winnipeg) 1st

I have been working with juniors & adult improvers for 3 years. My biggest coaching achievement is training a student to improve his rating from 1500 FIDE to 1900 FIDE in one year, with sights set on higher objectives.

Best skills include:
- Calculation & Visualization Training
- Endgame Calculation Training
- Strategic Play in Isolated Queen Pawn & Maroczy Bind Structures
- Solid, risk free opening repertoire for both white and black

I would like to set up one free consultation lesson to assess short-term, long-term goals, as well as establish a training regimen. I would like to structure a 60 minute lesson between 30 minutes of teaching, and 30 minutes of training.
