“David Horn is a phenomenal teacher and educator. Our son first began playing chess in his after school class in the fall of first grade when he was six. He would come home and say, “I really like that chess teacher.” When we purchased additional private lessons from Mr. Horn because of our son’s interest, our son would run to the lesson and look forward to it all day. Mr. Horn kept him interested, and made sure he had fun, while he still taught him quiet a bit. The summer after first grade, our son spent time at the Marshall Chess Club for chess camp in New York City. They told us at the club that having just started playing nine months ago, whoever taught him and worked with him, did an absolutely great job. We cannot recommend Mr. Horn enough.”
“Coach David is an outstanding chess instructor. He has patiently worked with my son for five years now, teaching him, not only to be a better chess player, but also a more self-confident young man. David is a natural teacher, keeping learning fun while demonstrating excellent classroom management skills. Through Coach David’s chess program, my son has learned patience, integrity, problem solving… skills that will help him for life.”
“David’s interpersonal and communication skills have allowed him to develop good relationships with our school staff, the children he teaches and the parents, resulting in our enrollment tripling from the year he started… He in fact entered some of our students in a city wide Chess tournament and they came in 3rd place.”
“Coach David is a great teacher, because he teaches me chess” :))
“Coach David is an extraordinary coach. My son loves his sessions and looks forward to them each week. David is a dedicated teacher and great with kids. He teaches them on a level they understand and keeps it challenging at the same time. My son has learned a lot about chess and his game gets better with each lesson.”
“We were fortunate to be put in contact with David when we first moved to Houston. We were so impressed with his ability make rapport with the kids and keep them interested in the game. He is such a positive influence and our children adore him. We are very pleased that they have been able to keep our son playing chess and amazed that he got our younger daughter to play. Truly we can’t praise him enough.”
