Holly is a very kind and understanding coach who will work with you and even spend extra time with you if she has the opportunity. She’s extremely responsive and is really easy to communicate with. I definitely recommend! It’s absolutely worth the price plus she can offers great lesson packages/deals too!

Reviews
So amazing. So much knowledge and honestly was fun too! I was so nervous to start but she made lesson so relaxing and natural.
My son loves when he has chess lessons, he likes the ability to play against her and other student’s. I love the professionalism she shows, and she is overall a very kind and informed instructor!
Holly called almost immediately after my request and scheduled a free session to play a game and baseline my skills. She then took nearly double to time to review several games with me before our first real session. I could not recommend Holly more, and I'm super excited to book my next session!
I am just beginning to learn chess and find her lessons very helpful. She stays positive and lets me know in a positive way what I am doing well at and what I need to work on. Highly recommend. atuck 1944
