Why WhiteKnight Academy Exists

Children learn best when a real teacher notices how they think, explains mistakes clearly and encourages them to keep going. WhiteKnight Academy combines live coaching with technology that helps students practise between lessons and allows parents to see meaningful progress. Our goal is to make high-quality chess education warm, safe and accessible from home.
