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 (July 2021) at Premier Chess Academy, Europe!

 

1.Sai Pranav Peddi

“Sai is a quick learner, enthusiastic and joyful boy of age 6 with a passion for learning new skills. In lockdown, we brought chess game and he started playing with us and learned moves in a little period. Seeing his interest we enquired a few online chess academies and found Premier chess academy is the best one to learn, coach Aabhas Jindal is very friendly and taught my son moves, puzzles, chess rules with ease. We have noticed he is solving the chess puzzles with more accuracy. We are proud to say that my son sometimes wins against us. We are looking forward him to learn more techniques and participate in championships. Our heartfelt thanks to all members of PCA for their relentless effort and his coach Aabhas Jindal.”

Coach feedback on Sai  :

“Sai is a highly energetic kid. He is very interactive in class and tries to complete all the assigned tasks with perfection. In the practice sessions, there are times when he makes mistakes but instead of getting demotivated, Sai tries to learn from his mistakes and makes sure not to repeat them. Sai has shown tremendous improvement in such a short span of time. All his efforts are very much appreciable! His love for chess and hard work will surely take him to great heights in the chess world.”

“Om started in October 2020, from absolute beginners where he did not knew nothing to experienced player who loves to play, win and fight on board! He is one kid who has been absolutely consistent with Practice sessions in UK. Though he don’t like to do Puzzles and positions, but slowly he is developing taste in that. If both passion of playing and solving Puzzles combines, Om is going to be one of the kid to watch for!”
