I am teaching my children to play chess. I never had a formal or any structured chess education. I learned as I played back in the 1970’s and early 1980s. My guess about my strength to be around 1500-1800 the most on a good lucky day. Teaching my children to play chess brings up the opportunity for me to learn as I teach. Hopefully I’ll meet other parents who are teaching their young children to play and we can share ideas on how to do this process of teaching in ever increasing success.
