Once you’re placed in a level for small group classes, when the time comes to schedule the classes, we have 15+ time slots each week for you to choose from. Our club is designed to be flexible for families. As students progress, they move up from Pawns to Knights to Bishops to Rooks to Queens to Kings. We have six different levels of classes from Pawns (what is chess?) to Kings (my favorite player is Fabiano Caruana). Every student is different, and we treat them that way.Įach new family starts their membership by chatting with a member of our staff, about how things work, and what level they should start with.

However, a year ago, we tried online courses for the first time, and after a little trial and error, I’ve learned the value of online classes! The online club we’re running is really great - the kids have fun, learn, and socialize in a way that’s easy and convenient for families. Over time, we’d occasionally have parents or coaches ask about online classes, and for all sorts of (pretty good!) reasons, we were never interested in trying them out.

A few of those students have won several state and national championships, but most of them were beginners looking to learn a new skill and have fun. The company my brother and I own, Silver Knights Chess, has taught 100,000 students. Over that time period, I’ve personally taught roughly 2,500 students. Now through our online coaching we are glad to reach out to wider sections of youngsters and have the opportunity to mentor them into champions of success.I’ve been teaching chess in schools in and around DC since 2009. With over three academies for classroom chess coaching spread, we have witnessed little masters being born and better attitudes ingrained in our students regardless of age or competence.We have witnessed better confidence and focus changing the young ones leading to overall progress in performance (including academic) and life-skills. And with years of experience in training children in Chess and other brain games, we have witnessed beautiful transformations. Performance is all about sparking that inner fire. We believe that every child is a master of his inner potential.

Through the challenging and interesting platforms of ‘intelligent’ games like Chess, Coding and Rubik’s Cube, we shape the young minds channelling them through highly productive pruning. Mind Mentorz utilizes the vast canvas of technology-backed online learning to reach out to the community of students, bringing them the flexibility and diversity of learning, enjoying and mastering the games. The best form of education that transforms a child is that which blends technology with progressive and futuristic learning.
