You’d be hard-pressed to find a more dedicated coach and teacher than Bryan Tillis. As the main coach in Florida’s Palm Beach Chess club, the USCF National Master has taught droves of ambitious students in both the sunshine state and the world over - and turned them into champions.

NM Tillis has penned some of the most thorough opening courses on Chessable, such as Master the French Defense, The Aggressive Queen’s Gambit Declined, and Alekhine Defense: The Dark Knight Rises.
