Chess 2 Children - Virtual and In Person Offerings!
CHESS CLUB 2020
Playing chess has proven to help students enhance their creativity, improve theirpower of concentration, develop and expand critical thinking skills, boost memoryand retention, and achieve superior academic performance. Additionally, chess hasbeen shown to augment problem-solving capabilities, provide cultural enrichment,advance intellectual maturity, and enhance self-esteem… qualities that we all desirefor our children.Chess2Children is back for another school year, 2020-2021. Unprecedented timesrequire creativity and the ability to engage your children with superior coaches andlessons. We shifted all of our classes to our safe, virtual platform, without missing abeat, in the Spring. We continued that by hosting a virtual chess tournament, withover 75 children! From June-August, Chess2Children was involved with various chessonly and combined virtual camps. We had beginners to very advanced and we wereable to bring our coaches in that best suits that particular class. We are usingproprietary software for teaching, games, tactics, etc., while having the most secureplatform for the online teaching.For this Fall, Chess2Children will be offering both virtual and live classes. We willhave 10-12 classes, once/week, typically 55-60 minutes in length. The live classeswill be at schools where they are allowing our teachers to come into smaller settings.Our virtual classes will be capped to make sure the teacher-student ratio allows forlearning and open communication with our coaches. We anticipate our virtualclasses will have most of our student activity this Fall, however, once F2F begins andwe are allowed to teach at schools, we will offer both options.Registration and the schedule are now up to date and live at www.chess2children.comIf you have any questions, comments or concerns, please contact tarun@chess2children.com or 404-964-1355.
