We’ve been teaching chess for several years in the Seattle area, and offer many programs tailored to a wide variety of students. Our menu of classes can be confusing, so here are some tips to help narrow your focus.
By Rating
Use your student’s chess rating and these general guidelines to choose an appropriate class.
