Director’s Message
“As a chess player and coach for more than two decades, I’ve seen how this beautiful game can transform young minds. Think & Win Chess Academy was founded with the goal of helping children not only become strong chess players, but also confident, disciplined and thoughtful individuals.
We offer both offline and online classes, though I truly believe children benefit greatly from our offline sessions, where they receive face-to-face guidance and real board practice. Along with regular training, we also organise monthly inter-academy tournaments, and conduct State Championships and other recognised events each year to give our students exposure and motivation.
Every child has potential — with proper guidance, even a small pawn can become a queen. We look forward to welcoming you to our chess family.”
