The extra classes are to accommodate the differences in learning styles and speeds between the two age groups. We offer additional classes to younger girls, so that they are able to grasp more complex lessons effectively. The extra time allows chess educators to review the material a couple of extra times, which the younger girls require. There is no difference between the courses in terms of content.

If you feel like your child is more advanced and is able to take classes with an older age group, please contact us. We will set up an assessment appointment with one of our chess educators, who will be able to determine whether your child will be able to keep up with the faster pace that older girls are taught chess.

We have taught girls as young as four years old. However, it really depends on the child. If you have a very young girl that you would like to enroll with us, please contact us for more information.
