Hello Mario,
in principle, the best way now is the new commuter train network of Geneva, called Leman Express. On line goes from Geneva to Saint-Gervais once per daytime hour. From St Gervais, the narrow gauge train will take you to Chamonix.
In principle, I said: right now because of a strike, train service in France is highly unreliable.
Your alternative is to travel by bus. The terminal in Geneva is at Place Dorcière. Several direct busses to Chamonix every day.
Good luck!
