Feedback from Earlier Participants
My daughter Nithika learned Chess very quick than what we expect, it's really interactive, we really liked the way training was organized , keep it up the good work.
Praveena is very adept in identifying the kid's pace and then adjusts her classes accordingly irrespective of whether it is a group class or individual class. She has an innate ability in bringing kids up to speed in a group class. Extremely patient
and takes extra care to help the kids learn chess in a fun and interactive way. My son age 5 picked up chess very well and is now hooked on to playing it every day.
My daughter played the match for the first time. It was a useful experience for her. She remembered and applied, whatever mam taught her during coaching classes. She enjoys the session. Thank you.
Thanks for the feedback mam and we are equally excited as him that he has shown interest in chess. All this while having been into outdoor games like skating we see this as a new found interest he is liking to develop. Thanks so much for your patience
with him and appreciate your wonderful classes.
My daughter was very much interested in chess after attending the workshop. Chess is basically a mind game and virtual teaching of chess is good for the current situation and Praveena mam's class is very interesting and engaged throughout the session.
Thanks for the workshop as we were able to know the benefits of a great indoor
