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. We are grateful to work with underserved community based organizations through a Hershey Heartwarming Grant from Youth Service America. The Chessin1day team brings the fun and benefits of chess wherever we go! We are excited for our Chessin1day session with you!
