Diones absolute passion for chess reflects in every aspect of his coaching. My 7 year old sons chess lessons with Dione is a highlight in his week. Dione teaches in a calm and encouraging way, which inspires love for the game of chess in his students. Im so happy that our son is learning the correct way of playing from the start, and am astonished at his progress in the few short months working with Dione. I can highly recommend Dione as chess coach.

Dione is an amazing coach. Not only is he a wonderful coach to my son but as a human being in general. He has a big heart and very dedicated to his profession. My son interacts very well with him and thoroughly enjoys the chess sessions.

Hi, I had the privilege to be coached by one of the members of the Elite Chess team, Dione Goredema, Hes been a great coach and very helpful. I would really recommend them to anyone who wants to improve our chess skills. Ive seen Dione turn a fairly new player into a really good player. Couldnt recommend enough. 😊

Dione is the best chess coach that you can come across. He is good with the children and also patient with them. I gave him my 2 boys last year in October to coach. The boys had no prior knowledge about Chess. As of now, they are experts. And you know what, his rates too are really friendly and affordable. My boys are always looking forward to the classes.

Dione has performed very well as our schools Chess coach. He has improved the quality of our teams and is also very instrumental in creating a better awareness of the sports code at our school.Dione hardly misses a practice session and goes the extra mile to be present at matches. He is well liked by the learners and commands a certain respect that I really appreciate, because not only does he focus on improving their Chess skills but he regularly lectures them on good conduct and discipline.Dione displays a wide range of good characteristic traits whilst coaching our impressionable youth. Topping this list must surely be his empathetic nature, his humility and his patience. He serves the school well as a coach and a mentor.

Dione is a wonderful, caring coach. We worked together when I managed a South African Junior Chess team that he was coaching. Dione shows a great understanding for the game of chess, as well as how to work with young chess players. It was an absolute pleasure working with him!

Coach Dioné is a dedicated, professional chess coach. His fun child friendly approach, with the necessary structure and routine will be beneficial to any student. His coaching strategies are student specific and each lesson carefully planned with development of skills in mind. My son always look forward to a session with coach Dioné! ♟️

Dione was added as a supplementary coach to Kajols regular regime and did exceptionally well in respecting her style, main coach methods, and giving her support, encouragement and tweaks, which as a whole culminated in a gold medal - thanks Coach D 🙏🇿🇦♟💥 solidly recommended

Dione is currently coaching my 6 1/2-year-old daughter. He is extremely patient and coaches her with enthusiasm. I am personally fond of how he dives into the history of chess at the start of his syllabus/framework with great storytelling ability. I have even asked Dione to coach my daughter in mathematics because he is so good at getting her to follow along patiently with real interest. I was concerned about the virtual aspect of things but Dione has pulled it off amazingly. My daughter is loving chess and this in a very big way is because of Dione.I have and will continue to recommend Dione as a chess coach.
