"Chess lessons are the best part of my day , Mrs Briscoe is very encouraging and kind.
  I enjoy playing with others especially during lockdown. The lessons and tournaments teach me a lot. "

Jo and her husband have been helping my son play Chess for almost 2 years. I have taken my son to other chess clubs  but he only wants to learn from Jo.  She is a wonderful teacher and highly personable.  Jo has an excellent manner with children and their parents. She really does provide ‘Jolly Good Chess’ - Kapil Kapur

Mrs Briscoe is a wonderful chess tutor.   She taught my daughter in primary school as well as online during the lockdown.  Playing chess and continuing to improve while being at home has really made a difference to my daughter as she found a renewed interest in playing the game. Mrs Briscoe is so passionate about chess that she manages to transmit her love for the game to all her students. She has a very engaging style when teaching strategy and winning moves and manages to keep the children interested and wanting to learn more and more.   She is also fabulous when explaining what went right or went wrong in a match and always manages to explain any errors in an enthusiastic way.   This teaches children how to learn from mistakes made in games.   Furthermore, Mrs Briscoe is a fantastic player herself and this definitely makes a difference when it comes to teaching children as they require explanations which are clear, simple and logical, which makes for very well structured lessons that make sense to the children. I would not hesitate to recommend Mrs Briscoe as a chess tutor! - G. Powell

During lockdown, it has been difficult for children to take part in activities they are passionate about, therefore we are very grateful to Mr & Mrs Briscoe for setting up weekly chess lessons, matches and tournaments online. Taking part has become the highlight of my son’s week, and playing a larger pool of children means he has been able to develop his skills further and practise resilience (especially when losing his queen!) -  R. Devesher
