What if learning chess didn't feel like studying?


What if every lesson felt like discovering a secret?


Two children play chess at a table in a classroom, concentrating on a blue-and-white board.

At New York City Chess, we believe kids ages 5–12 learn best when they're curious, engaged, and having fun. That's why we've developed an award-winning teaching method built around one simple idea.


Don't just teach kids how to play chess. Teach them how to discover the game.


Our online youth chess lessons combine undiscovered play, secret strategies, deadly tactics, and clever trick plays into an experience that keeps young players thinking, exploring, and looking forward to their next lesson.


Coach Vellotti kneels with two medal-wearing boys in a hallway, one holding a gold trophy and both in green and red shirts.
