No single teacher has the answer to every question (especially in the chess world, where the variations go into the millions!). By working as a team the Chesslife staff make sure all our students benefit from the same high quality learning experience delivered within the Step Method chess curriculum.

The best way to make sure our high standards are met is through collaboration between coaches. Once a term, we consult on everything from teaching tricky lessons like checkmating with a king and queen to using terminology appropriate to the developmental level of your class.

‘Coming together is a beginning, keeping together is progress, working together is success’.

Of course, the benefits of teamwork go beyond sharing didactic knowledge. Being among a group of enthusiastic chess players keen to share their skills is inspiring for everyone involved in chess.
