Chess Lang??? • page 1/1 • General Chess Discussion • lichess.org

Hi, I will be hosting 60~80 students per session (90% beginners) and looking into ChessLang?

Majority don't have Lichess acct and our school doesn't allow them to make their own acct (this is to avoid weird username, also allows the school to better track of the student's progress and therefore we manually make a student acct by using Lichess Team)

Is ChessLang better option?

I need puzzles / puzzle racers etc / easy tournament and team setup / students battling each other on their own, etc...

I don't know ChessLang but I see it costs min. $600/year do you need some of the features they offer?

You're not explaining us why you hesitate between the two.

Never heard about chesslang.

But, you should know that lichess has https://lichess.org/class , which takes care of the username concern for example. In fact, I think lichess class combined with a lichess team should cover you well?

@TBest @Hitsugaya Students are fairly young. It takes time for them to understand how to send challenge to another student and I can't do it for them on my end.

Agree with #6

If u want specific pairings (pre-made pairings) just ask then to challenge each other. It aint that hard. All they have to do is click the search icon, type in some letters and then click the clashing swords icon at the other student's profile, move some bars and click a chess piece.

600 a year minimum and it does not offer anything new. That app is a scam dude. Or at least a proxy. They pass the burden of finding willing to pay students to you and then you hand the students to them, and you have to pay on top of that.

That site is not an option. It is easier and cheaper to teach kids how to send challenges (ill take them a day at most, kids learn fast). and you are ready to go.
