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”.

Venya is a quick learner who learns the concepts well & tries to implement them in her games & enjoys every moment of learning. Her passion for chess is very authentic. She is always very attentive in class and ready to give answers and the good thing is she never gives up and always plays till the end of the game.
