ARUNPRASAD SUBRAMANIAN

The Grand Master

My Journey

I am a chess Grandmaster based in Edison, New Jersey. I have played professional chess for about 22 years. I became a Grand Master in 2008 at the World Open International in Philadelphia, USA.

During my chess-playing years, I had a chance to travel and play in 44 countries worldwide and work with some of the best players in chess. Most importantly, my work with the former World Champion Viswanathan Anand. The long hours we spent working greatly impacted my chess understanding and knowledge about the work method adopted by the elite players.

Coaching

I have been into chess teaching for over five years now. I enjoy working with my students and the great feeling I get to see them achieve their ambitions. Most notably, Abhimanyu Mishra set a world record in Nov 2019 to become the World’s youngest International Master. In June 2021, he set another world record by becoming the World’s youngest Grandmaster.
