[quote=Anonymous]DS7 joined the chess club at school and got really into it and says he's not having fun playing there anymore cuz he's "too good". I talked to his teacher who asked if he wants to study privately and prepare to play tournaments. How do I decide if this something worth pursuing. The way the teacher described it seems like it would be akin to playing a sport or instrument, an hour a day of playing online plus puzzles. How did your kids get into this, are private lessons worth it or should I try to sign him up for some more advanced group lessons. Most seem to be over Zoom, is that good for a 2nd grader? Or just let him continue to play online for fun and watch youtube videos? I feel like sports is an easier decision to make than this! [/quote]
