Skills your student will build

At this level we're not just teaching chess — we're shaping the habits of a tournament competitor. Preparing for a first rated event? Our arbiter-written guide to tournament chess rules covers clocks, notation and touch-move.

Positional intuition

Sensing which side has the better game without calculation — the hardest thing to learn and the most useful.

Time discipline

Spending the right amount of time on the right kind of move. Not too fast, not too slow, never in panic.

Endgame technique

Winning won positions and drawing drawn ones. Most games at this level turn on endgame accuracy.

Tournament psychology

Handling pressure, bouncing back from a bad loss, playing the position and not the rating.

Self-assessment

Reviewing one's own games critically — without an engine — and naming the precise moment things went wrong.

Preparation discipline

Studying specific opponents, choosing the right opening for the right round, knowing when to play for a draw.

Inside the classroom

Advanced sessions have their own rhythm. There's less talking, longer thinking time at each move, and a higher quality of silence. Students often pull out their tournament books to compare notes between rounds.

Trainer time is focused on group study and personalized repertoire preparation. Every student leaves the program with a personal opening file built up over the term, plus a study list of model games keyed to their style.

  • Personalized attention in small groups, for rated or near-rated players
  • Tournament-standard boards, weighted pieces, and DGT-style clocks
  • FIDE-rated trainers with active tournament experience
  • Personalised opening repertoires built up over the term
  • Recorded game analysis sessions students can revisit

The learning pathway

Advanced is where students earn, and then improve, their first FIDE rating. The King Plan with FIDE Master Jeet Jain is a separate Monday class, not a level above: take it on its own or with any plan.

Frequently asked questions

Will students be trained for FIDE-rated tournaments?
Yes — that's exactly what this level is for. We prepare students for FIDE-rated events with opening repertoires, opponent-specific preparation when possible, and tournament psychology training.
Do you provide individual game analysis?
Yes. Every tournament game is reviewed with the student — classical methods first, then engine-assisted for verification. Notes are saved so the same mistakes don't recur.
Is travel to tournaments included?
Travel and tournament entry fees are not included in the program fees. We help families identify the right tournaments to enter and prepare specifically for them.
What if a student doesn't have a FIDE rating yet?
That's fine — the Advanced program is also for aspiring rated players. We'll prepare students for their first rated tournament and target the kind of result that earns an initial FIDE rating.
How is Advanced different from Intermediate?
Three big differences: deeper opening repertoire including theoretical lines, real positional play (prophylaxis, weak squares, piece coordination), and full tournament-game-length study with model masters like Capablanca and Karpov.
How does the King Plan fit with the Queen Plan?
The King Plan is a separate class with FIDE Master Jeet Jain, every Monday, 6:00 to 7:00 PM or 7:00 to 8:00 PM. It is not a level above Queen: take it on its own or alongside any plan. Seats are limited, so message us to check availability.
