What parents in Dublin say
Brilliant chess coaching for my daughter! The coach is fantastic with young children and the Irish school timing works perfectly for us.
We found ChessMates after moving to Dublin and it's been wonderful. My son's focus and patience have improved so much in 3 months.
Excellent 1-on-1 coaching that far outperforms any chess app. My daughter has gone from beginner to solving real tactics puzzles!
