About FIDE Instructor & Women Candidate Master

Hi! Welcome to Princeton School of Chess! My name is Savetha CH and I'm a professional chess player. Current USCF rating: 2124 (as per April 2025 list) I've been playing chess since 1997 and I love what I do! I focus on quality teaching on a 1 on 1 basis (via Zoom) and making your learning experience the best to improve your chess skills. The puzzles I provide is customized to the needs/goals of each of my students. The lessons include: -Online materials -Game Analysis -Tournament game analysis (helps to learn from your mistakes) -Homework I will take the time to make sure you are 100% happy and you will see the difference on my hands on approach. It will be an honor to meet you to enjoy the on-line learning experience together. Thank you!

I’ve had a few lessons with Savetha and really appreciate her encouragement, professionalism, and the knowledge she brings. As someone with a busy schedule, having dedicated time each week in a 1:1 lesson is proving to be helpful and I look forward to continuing to expand my knowledge of the game.

It has been great working with Savetha. My son is 7 years old and is always excited for his chess lessons on Mondays.

First of all she can start by keeping appointments that she scheduled with me and I’m not the only one complaining secondly she can start learning to return phone calls or answer simple text messages plus she’s a no-show I do not recommend her

Coach Savetha's patience and unwavering support have been invaluable in my son's chess journey. Whether breaking down complex strategies or analyzing games, Coach Savetha remains attentive and encouraging, creating a positive learning environment that has significantly boosted my son's skills and confidence. I highly recommend Coach Savetha to any parent seeking a dedicated and understanding chess coach for their child.

First session was scheduled and my kid got all excited… but when the time came, there was no sign of the instructor. Further, calls and text prior and after the session were not answered. For whatever reason, this was a horrible experience. I would say go find someone else.

Savetha provides an excellent and rigorous first lesson. It's immediately clear that she is an exceptionally skilled player and teacher and I am very excited for my next session!

Had my first lesson, and all I can say was amazing and also 100% educational. I am greatly appreciative and definitely worth the time and money to be able to work with her.

She works very well with my son. So far they have had only two lessons and he has learned a lot. I highly recommend her.

Savetha is incredibly smart, and helps students take a principled approach to strategy. I really enjoyed my first session and am looking forward to reconnecting with her
