Overview

    Each chess workshop runs for one to three hours depending on the level, and is split into two sessions - teaching and playing. There are 4 different courses run at various times during the holiday period.

    Chess classes are conducted through an online platform called Whereby. Our chess coach shares his/her teaching screen and shows a particular chess strategy on a chess board.

    Topics covered are: openings, middle game, endgame strategy, tactics, and master games.

    NEW! Absolute Beginner group will learn the pieces, the basic movements and the rules of chess.

    During the playing session, children play chess on our platform called Chess Squad (www.chesssquad.com). The coach watches the students play and gives feedback during and at the end of their game.

    In the class, the coach provides online quizzes which they can use to revise their lesson and reinforce what they have learned.

The director of the Sydney Academy of Chess is Fide Master Brett Tindall. Brett has been coaching chess for over 26 years and has coached at all major events including Australian Junior Championships and World Junior events.


Brett is not only an experienced coach but also a very experienced player and has competed at both national and international level.

He has won many titles such as NSW junior champion, City of Sydney Junior and Senior Champion; he has also won several age titles at Australian Junior events.


Trained coaches

All of Sydney Academy’s coaches are highly proficient players themselves. Coaches are taught effective teaching methods as well as ways of managing groups of children of all ages. Our chess coaches meet regularly to discuss ways in which our teaching can improve.


Continual Improvement
