A chess instructor monitors and advises a chess team or individual student. You can coach students at any level, helping them to learn rules and pieces, improve their chess strategy, and prepare for national games. You provide demonstrations of basic and complex movements, explain how to set up and care for a chess set properly, and encourage positive sportsmanship. You also oversee all activities in a match or competition. You establish team goals, assist with preparation, and develop opportunities for all interested parties. A chess instructor also handles the administrative duties, including managing the budget, planning events, maintaining equipment, and tracking participation. If you work at a public school, you may also serve as a teacher.
