This is a really fun chess camp. The chess teachers are engaged and have a wonderful way of connecting with the children so that they learn the game and have fun at the same time. They teach the kids about good sportsmanship. Additionally, the Friday night chess camps and the Saturday chess tournaments are excellent ways for the children to hone their competitive skills.

Academic Chess camps are fun and educational. The children learn sophisticated chess moves and learn to love the game of chess. Jesse is amazing with children and has taught much of San Francisco to play and love chess.
