For Individuals / Teachers

Professional Development Courses for teachers and chess coaches

Our professional development is highly interactive and fun – even for those who have no prior knowledge of chess. Focusing on chess as an educational tool, teachers not only learn how to play the game, they practice the meta-cognitive processes of recognizing patterns, developing perspective, and generating and assessing solutions. Included are links to chess lessons that encourage collaborative learning and increase social/emotional development. Teachers leave this experience with a measure of confidence that they can return to the classroom and use chess to improve academic and life skills.
