♚About Us
Every player reaches a moment where the rules stop being the problem. They know how the pieces move. What they don't yet have is a plan, the quiet, specific instinct for what to do when the position gets unclear.
Dron Chess Academy exists to build that instinct.
Founded by Vaibhav Singh Verma, an Arena Grand Master, the academy takes students who already know the basics and gives them what is usually missing: a coach who can spot the exact moment their thinking breaks down, and the guidance to fix it. Across 100+ hours together, students move through openings, strategy, tactics and the ideas that decide games in the endgame, each one building on the last until the board finally starts to make sense.
We are not chasing quick wins. We are building players who think clearly and move with intent, long after they've left our classroom.

Our Vision
Our Vision
Every parent who has watched their child freeze over the board knows the look. Not lazy, not lacking talent. Just missing someone to point at the exact place their game falls apart.
We want to be that guidance. To take every student who has ever felt stuck mid game and hand them something more useful than another book: direction, from someone who has actually walked the path they're on.

Find the weak point first.
Find the weak point first.
A shaky endgame, a plan that dissolves under pressure, a habit of calculating too fast. We find it before we teach anything else, and build around fixing it.

Nobody improves by memorizing pages they can't apply. Our students play real positions, make real decisions, and review exactly where those decisions went right or wrong.
