Our High Performance Chess Champions Classes are for children who are passionate about chess.
Intermediate and advanced students are invited to attend.

Coach Elena has a special curricullum to teach intermedaite students 1000-1250, Elena's students improve quickly above that level. Georgi Orlov works with advanced students.

The High Performance Champions' class incorporates four learning modalities:
1) class instruction and discussions of chess strategies, openings, etc., (auditory & visual learning)
2) chess games with personal analysis by Elena or Georgi (tactile & visual learning) and
3) our Chess Academy© curriculum ~ 30+ workbooks specifically designed for children ages 4 to 12 years old (visual & kinesthetic/tactile learning).
4) homework for each class
Students are tested to make sure they know strategies learned in the class (pattern recognition). Students are also are advised to participate in Sunday’s Quads, held right before the class and supervised by one the coaches.
This allows coaches to personally monitor students’ games and use the observations for designing the class curriculum.
Coaches analyze games played by class students on a break between the games.

Using the curriculum, Nicholas Orlov, Nathaniel Yee were placed 2nd, and many studnets came in best 10 in the US Nationals.
Outside of class, students in the High Performance Champions' Classes should commit two to three hours each week for their Chess Academy© homework. Students are encouraged to play regularly in scholastic tournaments and online. Chess players who diligently come to class, complete their rigorous homework and play regularly will quickly improve their chess play.

These classes are structured for young players to find maximum success in chess and in their personal pursuits. Students are challenged by Elena Donaldson and Georgi Orlov to achieve a high level of chess mastery, educational success and positive interpersonal skills.
