Getting to meet teacher Brian as a Chess Tutor was Godsend. One thing I really appreciated was the love that he has for God that has translated into an amazing love and connection with the kids he tutors. His way of connecting with kids not only encourages them but increases their level of confidence greatly.

Terrian Chess Academy (TCA) has taught me so much that I didn't know about chess. Our teacher Uncle Brian or Uncle B is the best person to go to. He teaches in a way that keeps your attention and I think that is perfect for kids my age and it is so much fun.
