Our Vision
Online English classes while learning Chess
Solid Pedagogy
Live online video classes where pupils discuss chess, solve problems, and come up with ideas in a fun atmosphere.
Building a community
Personal work and Consolidation
English vocabulary and structures are encountered in a logical and practical progression. Everything children learn will be something they will use again and again.
Chess terms, tactics and skills are defined and organized in the same way.
Not only do children take part in Group classes, they are also invited to join an online English-speaking chess club created and reserved for pupils.
They can participate in a variety of club activities... consultation games, team matches, discussion forums and tournaments.
In order to make the homework effective, fast-paced and fun, children receive a video each week with a task to practice for the next class.
The objective is to acquire real skills and not just memorize words and grammatical structures.
Each video comes with a complete transcription to work on both oral and written skills.

logical thinking
a growth mindset
increased concentration
patience
resilience
