in any best way, please write to us.|||Chess is a very important skill to learn at an early age. I started to play when i was 5 years old. Basically it teaches you skills on concentration, sharpens the mind because of the thousands and thousands of different moves that can be made. Most importantly it creates an analytical way of thought which is very important for younger people to learn for as you will use this in very important decision making throwout life.|||I would say that learning chess especially at an early age is important, I regret learning when I was 12 I should have learnt when I was younger.

|||I feel chess should be a required course in school. The qualities it imparts are invaluable and cannot be taught through any other single source.





Chess not only teaches one to expand their imagination and creativity, but it also teaches patience, perserverance, determination, and resilience.
