Tianwen Gao
Tianwen started to learn chess in April 2014. In less than 4 months, she is listed as the top Kindergarten girl in CMA raing!
Sadly, we have to say farewell to Tianwen, as she is moving to US. We will sure miss this adorable and talented student.
In order to accommodate our growing size, we have moved our Saturday afternoon program to Our Lady of Guadalupe Catholic School.
With the new facility, we are able to take some more new students. Please see more info here.
Follow our instructors at the international tournaments.
