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 (selection criteria below) the 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 (November 2022) at Premier Chess Academy, Europe!
1. Yanuss Bakeerathan
” Hi, I am Yanuss , 8 years old and living in the UK. I started playing chess in March 2022. Premier Chess Academy helps me lay the foundation on which I can build my knowledge and understanding of chess. Coach Jeet Singh is truly a great coach, He helped me in every aspect of chess. My understanding of chess improved tremendously after I started learning chess with Premier Chess Academy. Playing in tournaments deepens my focus and helps boost my confidence. Apart from Chess I love playing Violin, Mridangam and electric Keyboard. I would like to thank my coach Jeet Singh for selecting me as ‘Star Kid of the month’. “
Coach feedback on Yanuss :
” Yanuss is a very curious boy who enjoys every moment of learning new concepts. Starting he was learning slowly but after informing him of his mistakes he focused and improved then he learned fast and good things he never gave up. He is very punctual in class and joins every class on time. He used to participate in practice sessions with great effort & always has a learning attitude while playing games. I wish him very good luck with his Chess Career and keep it up…Keep it up Yanuss!”
