Rita Atkins, Partner Coach: Teaching children who differ in age and chess ability
I am coaching chess in various schools in and around Cambridge UK. As I used to be a competitive chess player myself, getting hold of teaching materials has never really been a problem for me. Add in a projector and a laptop with Chessbase installed and I was ready to go in any classroom. I was not actively looking for new teaching aids so how come I fell in love with the online tutor LearningChess.net?
INTER UNIVERSITY CHESS TOURNAMENT IN MELBOURNE
A chess tournament between universities has not taken place in Australia in over a decade, but with the help of sponsors and enthusiastic work of the organizers the chess clocks have started in Melbourne recently. We can only earnestly thank LearningChess.net for helping make it happen!
