Advait has been trained by Badri for the last 2 years and the progress Advait has shown in his understanding and execution of Chess skills has been phenomenal. Patience, converting weakness into strength and adapting lessons to suit cognitive abilities and interest of students are hallmarks of an excellent coach which Badri displays in abundance.
