FM Niilo Man Nissinen

I am an 19-year-old FIDE Master from Hong Kong, currently studying at Aalto University in Finland.

I have represented Hong Kong at the 2022 Olympiad and 2023 Asian Games, will play the 2026 Olympiad, as well as youth tournaments and the World Rapid and Blitz. I’ve played many international tournaments and am the only active player from Hong Kong to cross 2300. I'm the current #1 of Hong Kong. Peak rating 2301.

Worked with students in Hong Kong and the U.S, teaching mostly group classes and some 1:1 sessions.

We will start by reviewing games to check the students' playstyle and weaknesses. During the classes, I will be open to what the student wants to do, whether it is reviewing games, looking at openings, etc. If there isn't a preference, we will focus on technical aspects such as calculation, decision-making, and other relevant skills, prioritizing those that the student struggles with and the most important practical skills required during the game. In between classes, I can also assign homework.
