ABOUT ME

My name is Chetan and I am a senior at Whitney Young Magnet High School playing on the varsity chess team. I've been playing chess for 9 years and have gained valuable experience in strategy and critical thinking skills.

 

My Mission: 

Help underrepresented students engage in a game I love for many reasons.

​

Chess is an excellent skill for children to learn, as it can provide several benefits, including:

• Developing critical thinking and problem-solving skills

• Improving memory and concentration

• Encouraging creative and imaginative play, as kids develop new strategies to outmaneuver their opponents

• Teaching patience and perseverance as chess is a slow and methodical game

• Promoting sportsmanship and fair play by requiring players to follow rules and respect their opponent

​

Overall, chess is an excellent way for children to develop valuable academic and personal skills.

 

 

 

I hope you have a great time learning chess and we will make it an intriguing yet exciting experience!
