At Premier Chess Coaching we understand that values such as patience, respect and caution are vital for life, as well as strategy building and analytic thinking.
We believe that Chess is a fun way of achieving these values and improving your child’s math, problems solving and intelligence.
About Premier Chess Coaching
Premier Chess Coaching was founded by Tomer Eden, a UK National Master. Tomer has been playing chess from the age of four. He enjoyed it greatly as a child and still enjoys the thrill of the game. His vision is to share his passion for chess with children and adults, teaching them how to develop their abilities along with an individual pattern of thinking while having fun and enjoying the game.
Premier Chess Coaching provides private chess lessons for children and adults, as well as chess clubs in schools around London (Lunch Time Club, After-School Club or Breakfast Before School Club).
