Robert H.

7 Chess lessons

I started taking lessons from Walt a few months ago. I have never received proper chess lessons before in my life. Walt's skilled and experienced tutelage significantly increased my skills in an extremely short period of time. The passion that he has for the game and his patience in working with me stirred a passion in me for the game that not only do my wife and I play every night now, but she has also started taking lessons from Walt.
Catherine K.

7 Chess lessons

Victor taught my 7 year old son chess. He is patient, thorough and knowledgeable. My son enjoyed his lesson. Highly recommended for a chess teacher.
Mark T.

28 Chess lessons

Glenn always had a very good idea of what we'd go over each meeting and that structure was truly appreciated on my end. We never got stuck on one aspect of the game for too long and I really enjoyed all the different ways I was learning. Always felt like I was learning from a true educator. Chess is a game that always intrigued me and now I feel confident in playing a game that had always been a mystery to me.
