Parent Feedback:
Ridhi Bhatt is a 10-year-old student currently residing in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Her interest in chess began while playing with her elder brothers and grandparents. Prior to joining Brilliance Chess Academy, she was familiar with only the basic concepts of the game.
Over the past six months, she has been receiving coaching from her chess coach, Dara Chetana, who has helped her develop a strong foundation in chess through various tactics and strategies. This structured guidance has significantly improved Ridhi’s focus and understanding of the game.
She now plays practice matches with much greater confidence and has been winning many of them. Additionally, she regularly plays with older members of her family, where her improvement is clearly noticeable.
We would like to thank Brilliance Chess Academy for their continuous support and guidance. A special thanks to her coach, Dara Chetana, for inspiring and motivating her throughout this journey.

Her consistency and accuracy reflect a strong understanding of the game at her level.
She is a very quick learner who approaches every concept with clarity and confidence. Ridhi shows excellent problem solving skills and rarely makes errors in her practice work, which highlights both her focus and her analytical thinking.
Along with her strong learning ability, she brings a positive and lively energy to the class. She enjoys interacting with her peers, actively participates in sessions, and openly shares her game experiences, including her wins, losses, and rating progress.
