Meet "Murtaza" and "Umer Farooq"

For some people chess is simply a game of 64 - squares with chess pieces in two colors black and white.

But to our young learners like Murtaza (5-years old) and Umer Farooq (4.5 years old) it’s a place full of imagination, possibilities and endless fun.

A Simple Beginning

When they first joined the academy, they were just one of those kids excited to try something new. But with each and every class they become more curious about the game and just after a few classes they learned how to set up the board, pieces names and movements, chess rules and now they know how to play a full game on their own without any illegal moves.

More Like a PlayTime

For them chess sessions are more like playtime rather than lessons. Between friendly games and fun time our instructors introduce new concepts and strategies to them which make them learn naturally without any outside pressure.

A Game they Truly Enjoy

We have seen that kids lose their excitement in some activities after some time but the best part of their journey  is they both never get tired and bored of chess and always look forward to their next class and happily return to discover new ideas and moves. While they learn through play, they also develop concentration, critical and logical thinking skills without even realizing it which will benefit them throughout their lives. 

Their story is a reminder that in a happy environment kids not only just learn they can thrive and amazing things can happen. When learning is enjoyable it can really become something kids look forward to.
