Choose by what you need

Choose a class by the child’s current level and age. Chess.sg lists a new-student trial and a twelve-lesson package at S$540, advertised as one hour weekly and S$45 perlesson. Singapore Chess Federation publishes level-based courses; its Q4 beginner run is already under way. Its listed terms allow late entry without pro-rating, make fees non-refundable and provide no make-up classes. Do not confuse an ongoing term with a fresh full course. Compare placement, class dates, materials, missed lessons, full package charges and current availability. Coach titles, ratings and tournament success are not independently endorsed.
