  • My son has been learning chess for few months now. Initially I was bit sceptic as we live in Sydney, Australia and I am not a great believer of online classes. But after a couple of months into coaching, I can see a positive change in Chirag's game. His game reading has improved significantly! I highly recommend the coach
