Here we are presenting the stars of the month (Sep, 2026) at Youngbuds Chess Academy!
Neeva
Parents’ feedback about Neeva:
We have seen a lot of positive growth in Neeva since she started learning chess. She has become more confident in tournaments and is much more comfortable competing against different players.
We are especially happy with how well she has learned to handle losses. Instead of getting discouraged, she is learning from each game and moving on with a positive attitude.
We really appreciate Coach Aniket’s patience, encouragement, and guidance throughout her journey. He has played an important role in building her confidence and helping her enjoy the game even more.
Coach’s feedback about Neeva:
Neeva is a very calm, sharp, and focused girl. She is always very serious about her work and picks up new concepts incredibly quickly.
I have rarely had to repeat any topic with her. She has an excellent memory and remembers things almost word for word after learning them once. Her ability to retain and understand new concepts is truly impressive.
In tournaments as well, Neeva consistently performs at a high level and is often among the top seeds. I have complete confidence that she will achieve a very strong position in chess in a short period of time.
I also believe that her focus, discipline, and learning ability will help her excel not only in chess but in her studies and other areas of life as well.
I sincerely wish Neeva a bright and successful future, and I’m very happy to be a part of her journey.
Best wishes,
Coach Aniket ♟️
Rishik
Parents’ feedback about Rishik:
My son Rishik has been taking online chess classes with Young Buds Chess for the past six months, and the transformation in his thinking has been incredible.
Before joining, he understood the basic moves but lacked strategy and often lost interest quickly. The Young Buds Chess coach Lalit help him to break down complex tactical concepts—like pins, forks, and endgame strategies—into fun, digestible lessons that keep him genuinely engaged. Their patient, interactive teaching style makes even challenging puzzles feel like exciting games.
Beyond the chessboard, we’ve noticed a real improvement in his patience, focus, and decision-making at school. He used to rush through his homework, but learning to pause and analyze his options on the board has helped him develop a much more thoughtful mindset.
The regular practice tournaments and detailed progress feedback give him a strong sense of achievement. He looks forward to every session, and as parents, we couldn’t be happier with his growth and newfound confidence. Highly recommended for any young learner!
Coach’s feedback about Rishik:
Rishik has been associated with the academy for a long time and has consistently been one of our most sincere, dedicated, and regular students. He actively participates in class and is always eager to learn.
Known for his cheerful, talkative, and charming personality, Rishik has shown remarkable progress over the years. His gameplay, puzzle-solving skills, consistency, and enthusiasm to learn new aspects of the game truly stand out. He is undoubtedly one of the academy’s finest students.
Magizhan Alex Ezhilarasan
Parents’ feedback about Maghizan:
We are very happy to see our son’s progress in his chess journey with Young Buds Chess Academy. He has developed a strong interest in chess and especially enjoys solving puzzles and challenges.
He is a quick learner and has been able to grasp new concepts very quickly. We have also noticed a significant improvement in his gameplay and confidence. It is wonderful to see him apply what he learns in class and continue improving with every game.
We are grateful to Young Buds Chess Academy and Coach Manthan for their guidance, encouragement, and patience. His support has helped our son develop not only his chess skills but also his problem-solving abilities.
We are proud of his progress and look forward to seeing him learn, improve, and achieve many more milestones in his chess journey. ♟️
Coach’s feedback about Maghizan:
It has been an absolute pleasure teaching Magizhan. The way he has improved in his game performance in recent times is remarkable. Magizhan has shown great consistency and resilience throughout his chess journey, which is evident in his rapid development.
He is a quick learner, particularly when it comes to grasping new concepts. Solving puzzles is his favorite aspect of learning, and he thoroughly enjoys it. Furthermore, his fun-loving personality makes the chess learning experience more enjoyable. The positive atmosphere he brings to the class is truly delightful. With his passion and disciplined work ethic, Magizhan has a promising future in chess, and I am extremely proud of his progress.
