I’ve taught chess to over 140 students at Public School 196. At the end of the semester I collaborated with the principal and staff to host a chess event. We had over 80 students participating from grades 2nd to 5th grade and even over 45 parents showing up and supporting their future scholars. This was a very important part of the event.
This program is so valuable for our youth. Chess is not just a game, it also teaches critical life skills. These skills will help set the participants up for success.
There need to be more people like him in the community. Not only did he help me with my three kids by teaching them chess, when I was struggling mentally & financially he recommended places for me to contact to get help. How many people you know do that? He’s God’s blessing!.
