ROBERT LIEBERMAN

Robert Lieberman has vast experience playing and teaching chess. He began playing at 9, and was a member of his championship high school chess team.

For over 12 summers Robert has worked with Ramaquois Day Camp as the Head Chess Counselor. He is a retired teacher with over 20 years experience, who previously taught at NYCDOE High School and Fusion Academy of Englewood, NJ.
