Chess Wizards was founded in August 2002 by a group of enthusiastic individuals who decided to change the culture of chess in ... Chicago. Since then, we have expanded our scholastic and summer camp programs to schools, park districts, and community centers across the United States. Our staff includes internationally recognized chess players as well as education professionals who will cater to your child’s chess needs. The adaptive Chess Wizards program is designed for all levels of young chess players. We divide our students into three stages of learning: Novice Wizards, Intermediate Wizards and Advanced Wizards. Once a student masters their wizardry skills, he or she is promoted to the next level. Our innovative program creates an atmosphere conducive for chess learning while never forgetting our commitment to making chess fun for children. By putting an emphasis on the individual needs and progress of each student we ensure a completely unique way of introducing your child to the world of chess. Our programs are known for their success in helping children build a vast array of skills; ranging from development in concentration, logical thinking and even mathematical performance. read more
