2. Garv Daga
” It’s wonderful that Garv, a 6-year-old Indian residing at Doha, Qatar developed interest in chess! (Thanks Mukund). At this age, it was important to focus on encouraging his curiosity and understanding of the game and it’s been 6 months where Shriram sir has kept the atmosphere light and enjoyable for Garv by patiently answering all his questions which further fostered his love for the game. He never wants to miss his chess sessions and has been practicing on his Lichess log in and I must say he has started loving it. Garv also has keen interest in playing football. “
Coach feedback on Garv :
” Garv is a remarkably bright and enthusiastic child with exceptional puzzle-solving skills. A quick learner and a creatively strategic chess player, he consistently joins and actively participates in class, boasting impressive attendance. His regular engagement in practice sessions further highlights his dedication. I am genuinely delighted with his performance and extend my best wishes for his undoubtedly promising future.”
