Lesson Settings:

If you notice that your child is struggling or would like to achieve results quickly, then private coaching is a helpful option. It is important for learners to practice outside of chess club and leverage techniques to grasp the concept and master the skill by executing in their games. Each child has their own pace of learning and focused attention. For students who are quick learners and want to explore more complex themes, private chess lessons are recommended to support. They learn how to set goals and what strategies to use to take their chess knowledge further.

Coach Chouchan’s approach is to help students learn chess and identify techniques to use in their games. These students commit to self-regulated study at home and bring questions for explanation by Coach Chouchan.
