Excellent Service!!

Thank you for the speedy delivery and exceptional product. I ordered pieces for 100 boards and received the order that same week. Loved how it was shipped; everything was organized beautifully.

Fantastic addition to our chess club.

The kids really learn from these videos...and so do I. Each segment is well done. The students respond well. Since the students in my club are at different levels, I allow the students to watch segments on their own and when I see areas they need work on, I direct them to the appropriate episode. I have purchased both Pawn and Knight and they are well worth the money.

Great for teaching chess

Elliott Neff's videos are great for teaching chess to children. I used them when I taught at Chess4Life in the Seattle area, and will use them again teaching chess to children in Wenatchee.
