Frequent Q&A

  • ​How to complete the in person class registration and get a seat reserved?​
  1. To register the in-person classes, please fill the online registration form first.
                     https://www.kingslandchess.com/group-lesson-register.html
  2. It takes about 1-2 business days to receive the confirmation from our chess school.
  3. In-person classes have a seat limit, so it’s on a first-come, first-served basis. The registration will be confirmed when the tuition is received, and the seat will be reserved.
  4. We will meet you IN PERSON. ***Please make sure the location and the time of your child’s class. You can download the class schedule on our website in the Chess Lessons section. 
 
  • What if a student wants to take the in-person trial class before I fully pay the tuition?
In-person class seats will be reserved for the students who completed the payment first.
The availability of the in-person trial class is based on the occupation of the seats. When there are seats available, it's on a first-come, first-served basis by the registration receiving time. If no seats are available, you may choose another location or online class. We will send a notice to let you know.  ​

 
  • Preparation of the in-person class.
  1. Face masks are required all times in the in-person classes, even if vaccinated. It is the responsibility of every student and their parent/guardian to determine the potential risks and participation in KLC in-person class and camp. Ultimately, it is an individual decision on whether or not to join the class. 
  2. NO food or drink. Water is fine.
  3. We will provide chess sets and teaching materials.
  4. We will provide Hand sanitizer. All chess equipment will be sanitized at least twice daily. There are also air purifiers in the room that can clean up and fresh the air in 15 minutes. 
  5. Parents pick up and drop off only.  
 
  • Missing Class and Make-up
If you miss class in the in-person class, you can take the make-up class in the same level online class, go to another location, or we can send you the online class recording video as the lesson is the same. If you miss class in the online class, we can send you the recording video.
To take make-up class or request recording video, please fill the Make-up Class form here, https://www.kingslandchess.com/make-up-class.html. You also can find it in the Chess Lessons section on KLC website. 
 
  • When will a student be promoted to the next level class?
​A student will study in one level for 2-3 sessions before they move up. The teaching materials and topics will be different in each session. The teaching materials and topics will be different in each session. There are many skills and knowledge that students need to learn and acquire at each level. So we prepare multi-session curriculums for every level of study.  
  1. In the New Beginner level, students only study one session. After the session is completed, all students will be promoted to Entry level.
  2. In Entry Level, students need to study at least 2 sessions before they can move up to Intermediate One level.
  3. In Intermediate one and up levels (Intermediate one, Intermediate two, Advanced one, Advanced two and Elite Group), our coach will generally evaluate students' class performance, homework, tournaments, and tactic skill level. Students can be promoted to the next level by coach recommendations or meet the USCF rating requirement. Every USCF member will have a provisional rating published after their first four games, and an established rating published after their first 25 games. Based on 25 OTB games, if a student’s USCF OTB rating reaches the next level requirement or passes the evaluation test at the end of the session, the student can be promoted to the next level. 
 
  • Class Tuition and Credit Policy
All classes are Non-refundable. Maximum credit two lessons to the next session. ​If missing more than two classes, students could take make-up classes. Please redeem credits or make-up classes in King’s Land Chess within four months. 
​No refunds or make ups will be given for tardiness and leaving class early. Students may be withdrawn from the program without refund if they are disruptive to the class for disciplinary reasons or if they are not picked up promptly at the end of the class.
 
  • Online Class Recording Video Sharing Policy
We only share the online class recording videos to students who would miss the classes. Online classes may be recorded for quality purposes and students who are absent to the classes, however, it's not a good way for reviewing the lessons. Our coach will review the homework and lesson in the next class. So if students have any questions, please bring them to the class and feel free to ask the coach.​​​
