Fundamentals of Chess I - Ages 6 - 10

Fundamentals of Chess I - Ages 6 - 10

When: Tuesdays, October 3 - November 7 from 9:00 - 10:00am

Does your child love to play chess? This six-week program is a unique opportunity to play the game while improving skills in Problem Solving, Deductive Reasoning and Creative Thinking by solving chess puzzles and executing a systematic process to beat your opponent.

While this program is called "beginner" it will challenge your chess player and keep them engaged, even if they have been playing for years.

This class is the perfect mix of fun, education, interaction and chess mastery in 1 hour. Your child will be constantly thinking and answering questions in an entertaining manner.

Lessons are taught on zoom through the interactive Lichess website. The hour-long class is divided into 20 minutes of concept, 20 minutes of game and 20 minutes of personalized exercises and free homework.

Classes are a maximum of 8 students.
