Student Feedback

I’ve never felt connected to chess until I actually studied the way of chess and the meaning behind it. But the only problem is, I don’t have anyone else to play chess with and I don’t have enough resources to enhance my skills in chess. That changed when I joined Destiny Chess Academy. This academy gave me an opportunity to train myself, play against other players, enhance, learn, and grow. If I didn’t join this academy, I wouldn’t have gotten this good in chess, that’s for sure. To any chess lovers, I recommend this academy to you if you don’t have anyone to play chess with, if you want to enhance your skills in chess, or if you’re just curious about chess! I even learned other skills that helped me in the real world because of chess, so go check Destiny Chess Academy out! And while competing, have fun!

Coach Feedback

Sruthi has loved playing chess from day one. While she already knew the basics, she has grown noticeably stronger with every class. She learns quickly from her mistakes and continues to improve steadily. Sruthi is always lively and friendly with everyone in the class, creating a positive atmosphere around her. If she maintains this pace and dedication, she is well on her way to becoming a very strong chess player
