Mr. Kantor has helped me progress greatly and see things that formerly I could never have hoped to formulate. Highly recommend, for a NM Mr. Kantor gives service at a great price and usually delves deeper than the regular hour to make sure you fully understand the topics you are discussing, great teacher and person!

Mr. Kantor is an superb chess coach! He is very knowledgeable, took time to assess each of my sons' level of knowledge and devised a plan which helped them prepare for competition and excel at chess. His positive encouragement incited my sons to strive for excellence and love for the game. I highly recommend Mr. Kantor as a chess coach!

Alan taught me chess lessons from when I was an absolute beginner to an intermediate player. He was patient, had a great knowledge of the game and taught me some lessons that I now teach students almost 20 years later. Without any hesitations, I'd recommend Alan for any group or private chess class.
