                   Chess Lessons For                  Children, Teens, and Adults

         

The Staten Island Chess Club, the New York City Public Library, and the Greenbelt Recreation Center have teamed up and are proudly offering free chess lessons to the children, teens, and adults of Staten Island. Class is led by Club Secretary Lou Fraser with participation by parents and members of the Staten Island Chess Club.

More lessons are also being offered on Sundays for beginner, intermediate, and advance levels through the School Plus Program, a student enrichment program geared towards student between the ages of 5 and 15.  Class is led by senior instructor Ed Selling with participation from members of the Staten Island Chess Club.  Classes are held at the College of Staten Island -  Bldg 2N Room 114. 

Lou Fraser, a long time member of the Staten Island Chess Club, and seasoned chess instructor will teach children 5 years and older how to play chess.  Lou not only teaches his students the rules of play but also teaches them the finer points of chess.  Lou focuses on the other important aspect of the game-good sportsmanship.  He teaches our children how to win with humility and lose with dignity.

Lou instills a love of the game to the students he teaches.  His aims are to give each child a solid foundation in chess so they can enjoy “the game of kings and the king of games” for the rest of their lives.
