What parents in Vancouver say
My daughter loves her weekly chess lessons. The coach is patient and the PST timing works perfectly for our Vancouver schedule.
Excellent coaching and great curriculum. My son's problem-solving skills have noticeably improved since starting ChessMates.
We tried a few chess apps but nothing compares to 1-on-1 coaching. ChessMates is the best investment for our child's development!
