Why Punjab families choose online coaching
Punjab has a network of busy cities, education centres, and smaller towns connected by frequent road travel. Families often arrange several after-school activities, making a predictable home-based lesson useful.
Online coaching gives families the same live format regardless of whether a suitable local academy is nearby. It removes travel while preserving direct questions, game review, and personal feedback from a regular coach.

We had been searching for a chess class online for our sons. Suddenly on instagram , we saw the ad for chesswize and connected with the them. The demo was really good and we started the classes for our almost 4.7 year old son. Ankit Rajoriya Sir engaged him really well , he very knowlegeble in his field. His classes are well structured and he teaches the concepts in simple and engaging manner. My son has started loving chess and has started applying the strategies. The environment of the class is really positive where kids feel safe asking questions and their queries are answered well. We truly appreciate his professionalism, dedication, and commitment towards his students. We highly recommend Chesswize and Ankit Rajoriya Sir to any parent looking for chess classes for their kids.

We are very happy with the coaching at Chesswize, especially with our son’s teacher, Ankit Rajoriya. Ankit sir is a wonderful coach especially for younger kids.He knows the game deeply but also teaches with patience, encouragement, and real passion. He explains ideas in a clear and easy way, so children can understand and use them in their games. His classes are well-planned, fun, and motivating. Since our son started learning with Ankit sir, we have seen big improvements in his chess skills, thinking ability, focus, and confidence. He creates a friendly environment where kids feel comfortable asking questions and are inspired to keep getting better. We truly value his dedication and care for each student. We strongly recommend Chesswize and Ankit Rajoriya sir to any parent who wants quality chess coaching for their child.

Coach Ankit has been amazing for my 8-year-old. He’s super friendly and explains chess rules in a way kids actually get. My son looks forward to every Chesswize class now. He motivates him to do better without any pressure, and I’ve seen fast improvement in both his game and confidence. Highly recommend Ankit for young beginners!
Chess for kids in Punjab
Chess is played through schools, colleges, and local competitions in Punjab, with organised activity supported at state level. Children can build knowledge in weekly lessons and test it separately in available over-the-board settings. Punjab's competitive circuit runs under the AICF-affiliated Punjab State Chess Association, whose annual state championships — including the Punjab State Rapid and Blitz Chess Championships held at Amity University, Mohali — act as selection events for the nationals. The state produced its first International Master, Dushyant Sharma, in 2022, followed by Jalandhar's IM Namitbir Singh Walia in 2025.
Online chess classes in Punjab: common questions
What are the fees for children’s online chess classes in Punjab?
Classes begin from Rs 375 per class for ages 5–15. Families can choose live 1:1 coaching or a group capped at six, in Hindi or English, with the same FIDE-rated coach every week. Parents receive a weekly WhatsApp report. The 30-minute demo is free without payment, and unused classes are refundable according to plan terms.
Is ChessWize available offline in Punjab, or is the coaching online only?
ChessWize teaches live online only and has no physical centre in Ludhiana, Amritsar, Jalandhar, Patiala, or elsewhere in Punjab. The coach is present and responsive throughout each session. Local school or community play can still give children valuable face-to-face games, while online lessons provide the regular teaching schedule.
Can Punjab families choose Hindi for a young beginner?
Yes. Hindi and English coaching are available, and parents can choose the option that helps their child communicate most comfortably. For a beginner, the coach can introduce board coordinates, legal moves, checkmates, and thinking habits at a suitable pace. The small batch cap prevents a five-year-old from disappearing inside a large online class.
