About Ankush
I am a dedicated chess coach from Kreative Mynds Chess Academy, experienced in teaching children through patient, structured and enjoyable lessons.
I understand that every child learns differently. Therefore, I adjust the lesson speed and activities according to the student’s age, experience and confidence. My goal is not only to teach chess moves but also to develop concentration, independent thinking and good decision-making.
Parents receive clear feedback about their child’s progress and the areas we will work on next.
Book a lesson and let your child discover how exciting chess can be!

Is your child discovering chess, looking to improve, or preparing for competitive tournaments?
I offer engaging, interactive online chess lessons for children in Los Angeles and across California—from complete beginners to experienced and rated players.
I have trained rated chess players and qualified for the national championships representing my state. I bring that competitive experience into my lessons, helping students deepen their understanding, calculate accurately and make confident decisions at the board.
My lessons are suitable for:
• Complete beginners building a strong foundation
• Intermediate players developing tactics and strategy
• Rated players working on competitive performance
• Students preparing for school and rated tournaments
Each lesson combines puzzles, practical positions, friendly challenges and game analysis, with instruction tailored to the student’s level and goals.
Through a structured, level-based programme, students explore checkmates, opening principles, tactical combinations, calculation, positional planning and endgames. For competitive players, lessons also focus on analysing their own games, identifying recurring mistakes and preparing for tournaments.
Lessons are conducted live online, with timings convenient for families in Los Angeles and across California.
Send me a message with your child’s age, current level or rating, and chess goals, and I will recommend a suitable starting programme.
