At the outset, it has been a remarkable achievement for Samuel who has worked very hard to deserve this rating. He has set a very good example of determination & focus towards reaching goals, and the coaches at Mind Mentorz are proud to see Samuel succeed. The only real secret to perform well is by having the passion & motivation! At Mind Mentorz, we help children understand chess and get better at chess! However, a student must also pursue the interest in chess actively and follow the coaches guidelines regularly to improve. Samuel, sets a good example of practicing his chess regularly, in & out of the academy! We've observed Samuel's steady improvement and intensity for chess over the past year. He never got discouraged from earlier tournament losses, but instead kept pushing harder for better results.
