A world-class approach to teaching chess that goes far beyond typical programs — for kids ages 4-14 in San Jose, Cupertino, and Campbell. ALSO SEE: Just for Parents
Get coaching for your K-6 kid, plus instruction and guidance on how you can help and support their success at chess. Even if you don't have a young chess player at home, you're welcome to explore the site and learn — and yes, I coach adults too.
I love chess and I love kids. I've spent my life teaching people how to sell, and I'm a great teacher and coach. I also just feel like giving back — paying it forward for the abundance I've had in my life.
When should you get help? As soon as your child shows a strong interest, or to help build that interest. Bad habits are hard to break — if they learn the right methods early, they'll go further, faster.
