About Ankush
I am a dedicated chess coach from Kreative Mynds Chess Academy, experienced in teaching children through patient, structured and enjoyable lessons.
I understand that every child learns differently. Therefore, I adjust the lesson speed and activities according to the student’s age, experience and confidence. My goal is not only to teach chess moves but also to develop concentration, independent thinking and good decision-making.
Parents receive clear feedback about their child’s progress and the areas we will work on next.
Book a lesson and let your child discover how exciting chess can be!

Is your child interested in chess—or would you like them to develop better focus, patience and problem-solving skills?
I offer fun and highly interactive online chess lessons for children in Los Angeles and across California. Every lesson includes puzzles, mini-games, practical positions and friendly challenges, so students actively participate instead of simply watching.
My lessons are suitable for:
• Complete beginners learning the rules
• Children who already play and want to improve
• Students preparing for school competitions
• Players who want to strengthen tactics and confidence
Students learn checkmates, opening principles, tactical combinations, calculation, planning and game analysis through a structured level-based programme.
Lessons are conducted live online with timings convenient for the Los Angeles time zone.
Send me a message with your child’s age and current chess level, and I will recommend the right starting programme.
