Since our establishment in 1995, the Nashville Chess Center has been actively engaging with public, private, charter, and home schools throughout Middle Tennessee. Our dedicated team of management and instructors has been working together for over 20 years, impacting thousands of students with our programs.
The Benefits of Chess:
- Enhanced Problem-Solving and Logical Reasoning Skills
- Increased Attention Span
- Improved Patience and Self-Esteem
- Positive Correlation with Higher Math and Reading Test Scores
Our Chess for Children Program is designed to illustrate these benefits by comparing the academic performance and social behavior of participants with their prior performance and with peers not involved in the program. This includes evaluating both classroom grades and standardized test scores.
Since 2000, our chess programs have consistently served over 1,000 students annually across various schools and organizations.
