At Premier Chess Academy (PCA), our vision is to transform kids into the world of chess & support them along the transition. Each and every kid at PCA deserves a special appreciation but we have shortlisted the below students. Friendly advise, “for student’s those who didn’t make it through – you will make it one day and for those who are the stars of the month – continue the practice as your bar goes up”.

Here we go to recognize the stars of the month (March 2021) at Premier Chess Academy, UK!

1. Rihaan Nayak

“Rishan is an amiable 8-year-old boy from London, UK. Along with Chess, he loves his sports and learning music instruments. On observing his keenness to learn and explore more about chess, we enrolled him with PCA. Rishan has been attending the lessons since June 2020 with Siddharth Sir. He always looks forward to attending his session and also tries to watch/play additional Chess videos/games to supplement his learning. He has started taking great interest in understanding the nuances of chess under the guidance of Siddharth Sir. He has a unique knack of teaching kid’s life skills about being resilient and motivates them while teaching kids chess moves and we can clearly see Rishan has started applying this into practice in Chess and other things from asking questions and clearing his doubts, giving different move suggestions without worrying about getting it wrong. So a big THUMBS UP from us for all the help!! “.

Coach feedback on Rishan:

“Rishaan started with absolute beginners, he only knew about the pieces movements only. But now teaching in Intermediate level, it’s been 9 months teaching him chess and he learnt the game so fast and is very consistent in chess. He want to learn as much as about the game, so he take reference from YouTube and always search about the game from Google which is so welcoming! Very bright future in chess and one to watch for”.
