"The ChessEdu.org White Belt Chess Curriculum is a great way to introduce beginning players of all ages to the fascinating world of chess. The curriculum includes chapters on the history and rules of chess, the value of the pieces, instructive chess problems, and basic mating patterns. There is also helpful information on setting up a chess classroom and the benefits of learning chess and applying these logic skills to other fields."
—International Master James Rizzitano

"Truly impressed with the ChessEdu.org curriculum, I’m honored to learn that my previous efforts at developing such a syllabus have been a guiding beacon. Indeed, Mark Donlan’s wonderful program is everything I’ve aimed for and much, much more. I congratulate him for creating this masterwork of chess education."
—National Master Bruce Pandolfini
