Thank you!
Your thoughtful responses will help us shape a meaningful and supportive chess-learning experience just for you. We’re excited to help you inspire curiosity, confidence, and connection—on and off the chessboard.
Teaching Chess Basics Course
Our beginner-friendly chess course is designed for teachers seeking balanced activities for students. Teachers will access our unique mini-games approach to break learning into digestible pieces. Our chess courses provide spaces where teachers can feel embraced and build genuine relationships beyond the chessboard.
Everyone can join in and enjoy this learning process, whether for your family, as an aspiring teacher, or someone just interested in basic ideas. Our experienced coaches will walk you through the basics, making it easy and enjoyable.
This course consists of four 90-minute bi-weekly classes spanning six weeks. Reserve spots today for a $10 booking charge and enjoy a group call with us to discuss various development paths for playing and teaching chess basics.
With that, each participant on the call will receive a 20% discount on our 6-hour courses. The booking charge will be applied to the course price for each participant. As a two-player game, group sizes must be set in increments of two before making reservations.
Group sizes are limited to four teachers, so we encourage you to reserve seats today to take advantage of our smaller class sizes through the summer months.
Group Call
This is a 30-minute casual meet-and-greet with people we want to get to know and have meaningful and lasting conversations with. We would love to share with you our passion for chess and chess education. This is a great opportunity for you to get to know more about us and the other participants.
Each participant will be sent to our website to review course pricing after our call. Pricing is based on group size, and you will have an opportunity to adjust sizes accordingly before purchasing.
After purchasing, a 30-minute course orientation will be scheduled with each participant. Teachers will also schedule a performance evaluation with their coach at the midpoint and a call to discuss next steps at its conclusion for further development.
