Chess Club: 25 Minutes

Hello, my name is Will. I teach chess on Outschool because chess is a lifelong hobby of mine, and I am passionate about helping young people discover and enjoy this beautiful game. Chess teaches critical thinking, time management, patience, decision making, sportsmanship, and many other valuable skills. Learning this fun and timeless game is a great way to engage your mind and improve your life, regardless of whether or not you wish to play competitively. 

I learned chess at age 5 and played as much as I could in my elementary school club and scholastic tournaments. I rediscovered the game in college and have played in many rated tournaments over the past decade, achieving a peak US Chess Federation rating over 1900 (Chess.com 2100 and Lichess 2200). Whether my learners are striving to become the next world champion, beat their older siblings, or are simply curious about the game, I am happy to help them on their chess journey!

I offer 30 minute and 60 minute private lessons. Scheduling can be flexible. If you would like to register for a 30 minute class during an available 60 minute posting, or vice versa, please message me and I may be able to accommodate. Similarly, if no current class times are convenient for you, we may be able to find a time that works.
