ThinkChess journey began in the community club house of two neighborhood friends and mothers, Preeti and Mansi. As they watched their children learn and grow through chess, they recognized the immense cognitive and strategic benefits the game offered. However, they also noticed that most elementary schools near them did not have kid friendly chess programs as an after school activity.
Driven by a shared determination to create a structured chess program for their children and others, Preeti and Mansi embarked on a mission to develop a chess program that would be accessible, engaging, and educational. With backgrounds in software development and education, they combined their expertise and passion to create ThinkChess.
At ThinkChess, our vision is to inspire a new generation of chess players, regardless of level or background. We believe that chess is not just a game; it’s a powerful tool that enhances critical thinking, problem-solving, and decision-making skills. Our program is designed to break down barriers and make chess enjoyable for everyone, from children taking their first steps in the world of strategy to young adults looking to challenge their minds.
