About Jesper
One of Sweden's most decorated chess coaches.
Since 2011 I'm a FIDE Senior Trainer — one of four in the Nordics, and the only one in Sweden. My mission is to help people grasp the mystery of chess, whether you're a beginner or aiming for the top.

How it started
"One day at the Swedish Championship, a young boy came up and asked how to get better at chess. I was about to give the standard answers — when I recognised my own situation at his age. The next day I called the federation and asked what the training structure looked like. The answer: there was none, but I was welcome to design one."
