Every elementary school student I taught chess is special to me. While teaching at Public School 78 I hit a special milestone. I reached 500 elementary students in a school setting.
I attended their graduation and they broke my heart by surprising me with a cardboard poster with cards. They communicated how grateful they were for the work I did with them. I helped them control their behavior and increase their focus.
Some students even said they wanted to be a chess instructor!
A safe & positive environment with respectful staff. My teen is improving her strategy as well as social skills. Mr. Romeo is a great instructor, is excellent with the kids, and motivates you to do better. Very positive atmosphere.
Overall the classes and environment is good. The teachers have a lot of patience with us. They made the me feel like I was part of the group from day one. The kids have lots of fun. The best part was that I got to play against Mr. Romeo.
