Parent Feedback

As a parent, it brings me immense joy to see my 10-year-old daughter, Mrittika, take her first steps into the world of chess with Destiny Chess Academy. Mrittika has always had a sharp mind and a natural curiosity—she’s quick to grasp concepts and excels in mathematics. Beyond academics, she’s passionate about dance and loves expressing herself through art, painting, and crafts.

When I first enrolled her in chess, it was more out of a desire to spark curiosity than competition. I simply wanted her to explore the game and enjoy the experience. She was initially hesitant, unsure if chess would be something she’d connect with. But thanks to the dedicated coaching of Aman Singh Sir and the engaging, encouraging practice sessions, I’ve seen a beautiful transformation in just two months.

Today, Mrittika genuinely looks forward to her chess classes. She’s begun appreciating the depth of the game and enjoys the challenges it offers. I’m truly grateful to Coach Aman and the Destiny Chess team for nurturing her interest with such care and excellence.

Looking forward to this journey ahead!

— Proud Parent of Mrittika

Coach Feedback

Mrittika, you've made an impressive start on your chess journey! Your enthusiasm for learning and willingness to practice regularly have stood out, and it's clear you're building a strong foundation in the basics. I appreciate how you're beginning to think through your moves and consider both your strategy and your opponent’s ideas. Your understanding of opening principles like controlling the center and developing your pieces is steadily improving.

Keep focusing on watching for checks, captures, and threats during each turn, and try to slow down just a bit to double-check your plans. With consistent practice and a bit more focus on tactics and endgames, you'll continue making strong progress. I'm confident that with your dedication, you'll soon be ready to move beyond the beginner stage.

Keep it up—you're doing great!
