Jackson Kalema

Hello! I am a qualified, patient, and dedicated Mathematics, Chemistry, and Chess tutor with over 10 years of experience helping secondary school students (ages 12–18) and chess players of all levels achieve their goals. Holding a Bachelor of Education in Science (Mathematics and Chemistry), I have served as a Head of Science, Head of Examinations, and Director of Studies, alongside being a Licensed FIDE Arbiter and National Chess Trainer.

Lesson Format & Dynamics

My online lessons are interactive, structured, and tailored to your exact pace. In our first session, we review your syllabus, identify where you feel stuck, and build a clear, step-by-step learning plan. During lessons, I use screen-sharing, digital whiteboards, visual diagrams, and real-world examples so you understand why a method works rather than just memorizing formulas. I foster a warm, judgment-free environment where no question is ever too small.

Lesson Content & Exam Prep

In Mathematics and Chemistry, I break complex algebra, calculus, chemical equations, and reaction mechanisms into simple steps before practicing with past-paper questions and exam-technique coaching. In Chess, we cover opening principles, tactical patterns, middle-game strategy, endgame precision, and tournament clock management—drawing from my experience coaching national youth champions and representing Team Kenya at the FIDE World School Chess Championship. After each session, you receive clear digital notes and practice exercises.

As a government-registered educator (TSC) and licensed international chess official, I am fully vetted to work with young learners. Message me today to schedule your first lesson!
