What is a right age to teach a child chess?

There isn’t a specific “right” age to teach a child chess, as it depends on the individual child’s interest, attention span, and cognitive development. However, many children can begin learning the basics of chess around the age of 5 or 6. At this age, they may be able to grasp the movements of the pieces and some simple strategies.

If you do not know chess, you will be at the Beginner level. If you already know chess, then we will assess where you stand and let you know which class you should opt for.

Once you’ve registered, we will let you know of your class start date. Individual classes can be started immediately and group classes can happens within the first 10 days of registration or as part of a new batch, whichever is earlier.
