Really fantastic, professional program run by Priyav - I believe that their organization and attention to detail really make them the best of the best as they are able to dedicate all their time and resource toward the study of chess. This improves the quality of the lessons substantially and makes them the standout amongst a really competitive market. Super impressed.

Highly recommend MyChessTutor. I was a little lost as to where to start with my 9 year old, as there are so many options for online chess. But Priyav was clear from the get go, setting out how they worked and finding a chess coach that would match what I had described for my son. Enter his tutor, who’s been highly inspiring, knowledgeable and above all creating great chemistry which makes lessons go smoothly! Already recommended it to my friends. Keep it up!

I can’t recommend this school and their tutors enough. I started working with them in 2021 and my results speak for themselves. I’ve loved learning from coaches with a deep respect for the game and have deepened my love of the game as a result of our weekly sessions. In addition to improving my chess game, I’ve noticed my analytical skills, ability to regulate my emotions, and ability to prepare for the long game in chess and in life have improved dramatically. I'd highly recommend MyChessTutor!

After struggling for months at chess and trying different things to improve, I decided to get some private lessons. I looked up some schools and based on the great reviews of MyChessTutor I decided to give it a try. Luckily, that was the best decision I could have made. The project itself is great, you’re scheduled for an quick evaluation where Priyav will assess your chess skills in order to to match with the best program and chess tutor.

This is a very well managed chess academy. My son is 7 and started taking classes about 6 months ago. Our chess coach is warm, friendly and makes chess engaging and fun for him. Couldn’t ask for more for my kiddo! Highly recommend these guys.

This is a great service that, after a brief skill assessment, pairs you with a personal chess coach. My coach is fantastic! I've learned a ton and am now playing better, more interesting chess than ever before.

I can say, without any hyperbole, that going with Priyav and his crew has been the single best decision I have made for my chess game, hands down. After only 4 weeks of lessons, I am shocked by the tangible improvements to my game after years of being stuck. I think this is because of the practical and precise approach, where after careful evaluation, my weaknesses were identified. Not only are the lessons rigorous, thorough, and effective, they are always fun, fascinating, and enthusiastic!

As someone who's always wanted to dive into the world of chess but was intimidated by the amount of knowledge needed to get started, Priyav made the first steps super easy for me, laying the groundwork for basic chess logic, from opening principles to simple tactics. In less than a month, I went from being scared to play against real human beings to grinding out hundreds of games a week thanks to the confidence that was instilled in me from our lessons!

My 9 year old daughter is working with Coach Priyav’s team for one on one lessons for almost a year now and she enjoys her lessons very much. Her chess tutor has worked with her online and identified areas to for her to improve. It’s a great team and I would recommend Priyav and his team to anyone who’s looking to get excellent chess coaching.

My chess tutor and I just vibe well together. He’s curtailed the lesson to what I’ve asked for, and he let me know exactly what he expects from me. He is also not afraid to call me out on silly mistakes that I make in a game. So much insight and experience. Absolutely, 100% recommend MyChessTutor. Jumped from an ELO rating of 950 to 1450 in a span of two months.

I love my experience with MyChesstutor. I love that they care, and I am so impressed with their professionalism. My 9 year old son and my 11 year old daughter are taking lessons, and their tutor is very effective and knowledgeable. My son has increased his rating by almost 200 points, and my daughter has ended up more enthusiastic about learning chess than before. Thank you Priyav for making the whole process incredibly smooth! I couldn't have made a better choice than going with MyChessTutor.
