Why Four Knights Chess?
At Four Knights Chess Academy, we focus on developing special skills that will benefit children outside of the chess game. Our goal is to make kids intellectually stronger and more creative in their approach to solving problems. We use chess as a tool to teach kids how to:
• Visualize and manipulate complex structures
• Ask the right questions to solve problems efficiently
• Work under time pressure
We have developed a curriculum that incorporates chess strategies and skills that aid kids in academic classes and future careers. Our team, which includes coaches from Harvard and MIT, creates an atmosphere where kids thrive.
