I recently reached an agreement with the Internet Chess Club to host the Polgar Chess University online on World Chess Live. The idea is for me to conduct chess training classes online in three levels:
* Beginner (aiming for under 1000)
* Intermediate (approximately 1000 – 1600)
* Advanced (approximately 1600 to 2200)
It will start with one weekly class per level. In addition, I will have special classes to show parents, school teachers, and new chess coaches how to help their youngsters learn and improve chess or how to introduce chess in the schools. I will also do special exclusive lectures for World Chess Live.
The special treat is I will invite many other world-class players and coaches to come on as guest lecturers.
I already started to record lessons on all levels and it will be launched very soon. All details will be available via ICC and this blog shortly. If you have any suggestions, please feel to email me at SusanPolgar@aol.com or enter your comments in the comment section on this blog.
I am also working on a project involving a full time global chess TV channel. It is a lot of work but I think it will be worth it. Stay tune for more details soon.
Congratulations!!
I wish you the best on the “chess channel” notion. Full-motion video is a lot of work. Consider the typical local TV station, which employs about 100 people, and produce about two hours of news each day.
It will take some creative programming.
All the very best!
A global chess TV channel. That would be great. Let us know so we can spread the word to our chess clubs.
Eagerly waiting for the
University to function.This will be another feather in SUSAN’S CAP.Biggest achievement of the present Era,Ifeel.Best gift by Susan to all Chess-lovers.
does tht mean there will b live matches on chess channel or just chess talk show
nice! i’ll be looking forward to it 🙂
