Chess Tutors in Boise

About Boise, ID

The city of Boise, Idaho is the largest city in the state. It also serves as the state capital. With a city population of 211,473 and a metropolitan area of well over a half-million people, the city is most definitely considered to be the governmental, cultural, and economic center of the state. The city is located on a wide, flat plain with a semi-arid climate. Although the summers can be extremely hot and dry, the winters are bitterly cold and marked by fair amounts of snowfall. The city is located near both the Boise and Snake Rivers. Known as “The City of Trees,” Boise’s arid outskirts draw a sharp contrast to the wealth of green, lush trees that grow within the city’s limits.

Boise began much like many other cities in the middle of the United States as a fort for the U.S. Army. Since its inception in the 1800s, the city has grown into a major economic force in its region. The city is home to several major Idaho and national companies, such as Cascade LLC, New Albertsons Inc., Albertsons LLC, J.R. Simplot Company, Idaho Pacific Lumber Company, Idaho Timber Corporation, WinCo Foods and Hewlett Packard's printer division. Micron Technology is the city’s largest employer. There is also a strong manufacturing sector within the city.

The city of Boise is divided into several sections: Downtown, The North End, Southwest, Northwest, Warm Springs, East End, South East, The Boise Bench, and West Boise. Surrounding towns and cities include: Eagle, Nampa, Meridian, Caldwell, Emmett, Ustick, Star, Middleton, Enrose, Bowmont, Kuna, Mora, Pearl, and Greenleaf.

About Chess

The game of chess is often thought of a simple pastime or recreation, but in fact the game represents one of the most challenging strategic games in the world. The game of chess as it is known today developed in Southern Europe in the second half of the 15th century as a result of even more ancient forms that originated in India and Persia. Over the past 500 years, the game has progressed into a highly competitive match of strategic wit and planning, with many complex maneuvers and defenses that are so effective that they are often learned and memorized by professional players.

The wonderful thing about chess is that it can be played and appreciated on so many levels. It is played by millions of people throughout the world. Many people play recreationally, in chess clubs, online, by correspondence, and in national and international tournaments. The game is so competitive and skill-oriented that it is even an official event in the Olympics. As a result, chess tutors and instructors are a great benefit for those who wish to play chess at a highly competitive level. A chess tutor will be able to impart essential knowledge and strategy to be an accomplished chess player. It is in this way that chess is known as an art: when a player creates a puzzle or trap within a chess game, it is known as a chess composition, and the player is referred to as a chess composer. A tutor can teach the elements of a chess composition, which include the opening, middlegame, endgame, exchanges, chess tactics, pins, forks, skewers, discovered attacks, zwischenzugs, deflections, decoys, sacrifices, underminings, overloadings, and interferences.

Whether you are a young child, a teenager, a university student, or a professional adult and are seeking help in chess, our tutors can assist you. Our professional tutors have advanced degrees or extensive training in chess and can tutor and help in subject areas such as the opening, middlegame, endgame, exchanges, chess tactics, pins, forks, skewers, discovered attacks, zwischenzugs, deflections, decoys, sacrifices, underminings, overloadings, and interferences.  Instruction and homework help in chess is offered in various cities and towns such as Atlanta, Austin, Boston, Chicago, Dallas, Denver, Houston, Los Angeles, Miami, New York City, Philadelphia, Phoenix, Portland, San Diego, San Francisco, Seattle and others.
