By Chandrajeet Rajawat, Founder – Kingdom of Chess (chess academy for kids)
When I founded Kingdom of Chess, I wasn’t just thinking about pieces on a board. I was thinking about children—thousands of them across the world—growing up in a fast, distracted world, in need of something that could quietly teach them how to think, focus, and grow.
Chess was my answer.
I started learning chess at the age of 17 and the value this game has added in my life i wanted to provide those values to every child atleast once in their life.
At Kingdom of Chess, we’re not simply building chess players. We’re shaping sharper minds, stronger characters, and resilient learners—young individuals who carry the lessons from the board into every area of life.

The Real Value of Chess Isn’t Just in Winning Games
Chess develops qualities that no textbook teaches. Every move a child makes on the board teaches them to:
- Think before acting
- Anticipate outcomes
- Weigh consequences
- Embrace uncertainty
- Adapt under pressure
These are not just chess skills. These are life skills.
A child who understands how to remain calm after losing a queen is better equipped to handle setbacks in school, sports, and relationships. A child who patiently plans a checkmate over ten moves is learning discipline, vision, and focus.
At Kingdom of Chess, we’ve seen these transformations unfold—across cultures, languages, and learning styles.
A Global Platform with a Personal Approach
Today, Kingdom of Chess is present in over 30 countries, offering both online and offline classes. But our true strength lies in how personalized our approach is.
Our programs are tailored for children aged 5–15, divided by experience level—not just age. We work with:
- Complete beginners learning their first moves
- Intermediate players sharpening their tactical skills
- Advanced students training for tournaments and ELO improvement
Our team of FIDE-certified coaches brings a balance of warmth and world-class knowledge. We believe every child has potential. Our job is to unlock it.
Structured Learning Meets Creative Discovery
One of the first things parents notice about our classes is how engaged their children are. That’s not by accident—it’s by design.
For young learners, we use:
- Chess storytelling and characters to build curiosity
- Interactive games and visual puzzles to make lessons stick
- Challenges and rewards to encourage consistency
As students grow, so does the depth of their learning. They analyze their own games, review grandmaster matches, build opening repertoires, and learn how to manage pressure during live tournaments.
Every child’s progress is tracked and celebrated. No one is left behind.
Beyond the Board: What Our Students Gain
Chess is a mirror. It reveals how a child thinks, how they handle pressure, and how they grow from mistakes. That’s why our program naturally enhances:
- Focus and attention span
- Memory and mental clarity
- Emotional resilience
- Confidence in decision-making
- Problem-solving ability
I recall a parent telling me, “Since my daughter started learning chess here, she’s become more organized, more patient, and more independent—not just in chess, but in life.”
That’s the kind of feedback we live for.
Building Champions with Character
Not every child will become a grandmaster. And that’s okay.
At Kingdom of Chess, we’re building something even more valuable—character, clarity, and confidence. We want our students to be strategic thinkers, empathetic teammates, and courageous learners—on and off the board.
We believe that a well-taught game of chess can shape a lifetime of good decisions. That’s our promise, and that’s our mission.
