My chess life
Hello!
My name is Maksim Ashomkin.
I am 28 years old man from Russia.
I play chess since 4.5 years.
All my childhood I went to a chess school in Russia.
I was a multiple champion of the region in age categories.
My FIDE rating is 2018 but I don’t think it’s a real reflection of my chess skill because when I was on top of strength in my town has not yet been FIDE raiting.
I had Candidate Master (CM) Title.
I have big experience in chess teaching.
