I really enjoy promoting chess in schools. Tournament chess in high school for me was the most fun I've had in my life. I love helping to give a similar team experience to students in schools and clubs everywhere.
I occasionally upload chess videos and commentary to my youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/aearsley91
