Chess Instruction
Our database has coaches from multiple parts of the world. Some of them don't work with 32 Pieces. We make sure every coach in our program meets our standards before we add them to our database.
Vetting Process
We find coaches or look at coaches who have been referred to us from trustworthy sources.
We inspect their US Chess Profiles and/or FIDE profile to confirm authenticity.
A 32 Pieces team member will participate in a chess lesson with the potential coach. During the lesson, the employee fills out an assessment sheet.
We ask each coach to provide a reference that we can contact. This typically comes in the form of a previous student or a chess mentor, but other forms are acceptable, as long as they can attest to the chess and/or teaching skills of the coach.
We ask them to fill out a form regarding any coaching preferences they have and then we start pairing them with our members’ indicated preferences!
Get Paired with a Coach
Step 1) Fill out the form
Step 2) We will email you with the details of coaches that match your preferences. Every coach we pair you with has gone through our vetting process at least once. Lastly, if we do not have a coach that matches your indicated preferences, we will try our best to find one, vet them, and then send them your way!
