FIDE Master Viktor Neustroev away from FIDE-rated events for 15 years.
But just one year after his return, he broke through the 2300-barrier… won the championship of Novosibirsk… drew and beat grandmasters rated 300 points higher… and earned the FM title.
His secret?
End-to-end "leave no stone unturned" calculation.
Calculation has always been Neustroev’s strongest suit. So when he became a chess coach, he wasted no time crystallizing his skills into a teachable, step-by-step system…
And the results have been impressive:
From Having ‘No Mind’s Eye’ To Calculating 10 Moves Ahead
I don’t have a visual memory at all. I have no ‘mind’s eye’ and I always assumed that meant I’d never be a decent calculator. But actually, my lessons with Viktor ended up with me calculating the position 10 moves in — with every line!... I really surprise myself when I find that I can do it. Slowly I’m getting more confidence – maybe I can do this after all!

Added 550 Rating Points
Viktor has an exceptional teaching style which I think makes him quite unique as a teacher. He has helped me improve my play from 800 to nearly 1350 now so far and I am still improving all of the time.
