Chess In 1 Day

Screenshot 2024-08-08 205915_edited.jpg

Chessin1Day is a volunteer teen chess instruction initiative in New York & Connecticut. We offer K-12th grade students, families/guardians, and educators a free and fast immersion into the game. Although chess is perceived as complex to learn-- we've developed an instuction method that activates players in just one meet-up. Our classes are held at local libraries, schools and community centers with  champion rated teen instructors who love to teach. We also provide follow-up lessons, vetted resources, and have online Chesskid & Chess.com Clubs for students to gain further mastery.

We have taught over 580 students chess, and trained 59+ instructors in the Chessin1Day method. The Chessin1day team brings the fun and benefits of chess wherever we go! We are excited for our Chessin1day session with you!

I had my twins (8 years old) Alexander and Willow to the Somers library chess lesson and they had a blast.  The one-on-one attention was wonderful, and everyone was so helpful so please keep it up! We hope that we can sit down with Jack again, or any of the great teachers at the next session in Mahopac. 

Please keep us posted!
