Class Description

This course is designed for students who already know how the pieces move and have a basic understanding of checks and checkmates. The focus is on sharpening strategy, learning key tactics, and preparing for tournament play- possibly as part of a school team.

Students will review rules, coordinates, and piece values before moving into essential skills such as capturing and protecting, checkmates and stalemates, and special moves in chess. Lessons also cover opening strategies (DCK), basic tactics like pins, forks, and double attacks, as well as defensive maneuvers. Students will practice middlegame and endgame techniques and even test their skills against “robot” levels 1–5. By the end, participants will be more confident, strategic, and tournament-ready players.

Please note: A materials fee will be included. Alternatively, chessboards must be provided.

Instructor's reviews

My daughter actually switched to the other section of this class... 3rd-5th Grade, so I don't want to give this teacher a bad review but she had started in this section (K-2), so that's the review I was sent.

Overall, I found this class to be very disappointing. It was listed as a class taught by a Disney Princess and the class ended up having 3 different teachers during the course. This was confusing for the students and didn't offer any cohesiveness. The teachers couldn't even remember the kids names. At the end of the semester, very few songs or dances were actually taught and the kids mostly played games during the hours of the class. The class isn't inexpensive, so for this, I wouldn't gone somewhere else to give my daughter a better experience and have her learn something.

Harry Potter Camp was so much fun! My girls loved making wands and creating potions...and thinking of mischievous ways to stir trouble at Hogwarts! The creative programming was wonderful for this outdoor day camp and kept my girls busy and having a great time. Their only request was that the day lasted longer! They came home and continued creating ideas to keep the magic going. Thank you!

I feel that this course is not tailored for K-1 grade. K-1 graders need more moving around, especially after a long day at school, then was made possible by the instructor.
