We cap our live Zoom classes at just 6 students, ensuring your child gets real-time move corrections, interactive gameplay, and measurable cognitive growth without getting lost in a massive crowd.

No prior experience is required. Our Starter Level is designed for absolute beginners to learn the game entirely from scratch.

100% of our classes are live and fully interactive. We do not use pre-recorded videos. Your child will log into a secure Zoom room with a live coach who monitors their digital chessboard and guides them in real-time.

Students attend two live classes per week. Each session is 45 minutes long, which is the scientifically proven optimal attention span for young learners to absorb tactics without burning out. Schedules are fixed to maintain consistency.

We strictly enforce a maximum 1:6 coach-to-student ratio. This ensures every child receives individual attention, active participation time, and personalized game analysis during the live session.
