ChessCoachJay

I have enjoyed coaching children since January of 1994. Including all of the camps, afterschool programs, and evening classes, I have taught chess to over 40,000 young players. I had an app (Coach Jay's Chess Academy) with over 100,000 downloads and a Beginner-Expert series of books (White-Black Belt) by the same name. I published a fun book for kids "Fried Liver & Burning Pants: Curious But True Chess Stories and the Lessons We Learn from Them!" 

My wife and I have been married since January of 1992. We have two boys who have left the nest. Both play chess from time to time.
