Why Chess Is More Than Just a Game
Chess is one of the best things a child can learn. Behind every game is a workout for the mind — focus, patience, planning, and the confidence to make a decision and learn from it. The skills children build at the board help them in the classroom and well beyond it.
In personalised one-to-one classes, an expert coach guides your child from their very first moves to confident, tournament-ready play, adapting every class to your child’s age, level and pace — and keeping it genuinely fun along the way.
Your child learns and plays on lichess.org and other trusted global chess platforms (such as chess.com and ChessKid), guided live by a real coach — never left alone with an app. They get real feedback, encouragement and a clear plan to keep improving.
Sharper Focus
Chess trains your child to concentrate and think before acting.
Critical Thinking
Every move means weighing options and planning ahead.
Patience and Discipline
Children learn to slow down, stay calm and persevere.
Problem-Solving
Each position is a puzzle that builds real reasoning skills.
Memory and Visualisation
Spotting patterns strengthens memory and mental imagery.
Confidence in Decisions
Making a plan — and owning it — builds lasting self-belief.

Real reviews from real Mynsha families. Here’s what parents say about our Abacus classes and tutors.
One of the best online coaching that we have experienced so far. We have witnessed immense improvement in Hindi language skills of our 8 yr old and we’re pleasantly surprised to see him read, write as well as chant a few mantras in Hindi/Sanskrit within a matter of couple of months. They seek continuous feedback, discuss the plan with parents and fine tune it as per kids’ needs. Thanks for such a good service and keep up the great work!! Kudos to you Ruchi, Gaurav and Amrita m’am! Thanks
It’s really helpful for my 5y old daughter for maths she is so much confident and doing her counting herself self up To hundreds wonderful and all plus and minus sums her self regular home work. Teachers r also very supportive and helping . Thanks 🙏

Timely follow ups and maintaining the quality of lesson delivery – both were was facilitated by Ruchi very well. Thank you Ruchi and Mynsha for your help. Will definitely recommend to all.
We had a wonderful experience with Mynsha Learning. My daughter enrolled in their Abakus classes and was taught by Navdeep, who was absolutely amazing. She made the classes engaging and enjoyable, and my daughter genuinely looked forward to attending every week. We have seen a clear improvement in her mental maths skills, and most importantly, her confidence with numbers has grown. Highly recommend Mynsha Learning.

We’ve had a great experience with Mynsha! The teachers are dedicated, offering excellent guidance and feedback to the students, particularly in Vedic math. They work closely with parents and adapt an approach that supports the school’s pace, child’s needs and learning style. Ruchi, the founder, is especially outstanding! My daughter enjoys the Vedic math class because she gets to learn new and easy ways of doing daily math problems. Most importantly, the course has helped her enjoy the subject and we observed a clear difference in her interest since she started. We highly recommend Mynsha to other families and students.
I enrolled my 6 year old in various classes. Very budget friendly. Teachers are so patient and very helpful. Lucky we found Mynsha

Frequently Asked Questions?
Are the chess classes live or recorded?
Every class is live and one-to-one with your child’s coach, so they get real-time guidance. We also record classes, so your child can revisit anything later.
Are these group classes?
No — all classes are private, one-to-one, so everything is paced and personalised for your child.
What age can children start learning chess?
From about age 6. Our classes suit children aged 6 to 16, and complete beginners are very welcome.
Does my child need any prior experience?
Not at all. We start right from how the pieces move, so a child who has never played is perfectly placed to begin.
Which platform do you use?
Your child learns and plays on lichess.org, a trusted, free global chess platform — and some coaches also use chess.com or ChessKid. What makes the difference is the live, one-to-one coach guiding your child, rather than an app they use alone.
How are classes conducted?
Live over video, one-to-one. Your child and coach work through lessons, puzzles and practice games together on the chess platform, with the coach explaining and giving feedback as they go.
Do you prepare children for tournaments?
Yes. As your child progresses, we build towards confident, tournament-ready play and can help them prepare for friendly and school-level tournaments.
How do I enrol my child?
Book a free demo. You’ll meet the coach, see how a class works and ask any questions. If you’re happy, we’ll share the simple per-class pricing and set up your classes — with no pressure to decide on the spot.
