Frequently asked questions
My student can already play chess. Is there an entry test?
Yes, indeed! After a student creates an account, they are given two choices:
We advise most students to choose the left option. Students then get started right away and begin at the beginning. If a student already has considerable chess experience, they can choose the right option. The student then starts with an entry test.
The task in this entry test is always to find the best move. Based on the student's performance, it is determined where they may begin. It could very well be that a student starts at the white-rook level.
Unlock all lessons
It is also possible to unlock all lessons for a student. They do not need to unlock lessons first but can start with a lesson of their choice.
You can unlock all lessons as a teacher in the manage students. At the bottom, you can select a series of actions. Choose: unlock all lessons, check a student, and click oké. This student can now choose lessons at will.
Note!
Children often overestimate their own level (a lot). They then start with lessons that are too difficult, leading to frustration. Taking a step back in level is difficult for many children. Our advice is to be very cautious with unlocking all lessons! Using the entry test is the best method to quickly get children working at their own level.
