Testimonies: 

Dad:  Charles Van Orden

I met Glenn about 4-5 years ago when he was running an after-school program 

at Penllyn Woods Community Center.

Since meeting Glenn, he has guided the children in his club,

many of whom have been Upper Dublin kids to 4 straight

Pa State Chess Club Championship, and produced numerously

individual state champions, including my Charles, this year.

Glenn is a superior chess instructor and organizer. Thanks, Glenn

"Glenn has been a terrific chess instructor for my boys now, ages 9 and 11. He started teaching them when they were young, and I believe that the problem-solving skills of chess have enhanced their math abilities. Glenn provides them with personal attention and has kept them interested in the game all these years. He consistently teaches them new techniques and gives them the confidence and knowledge to play and win in tournaments.  I highly recommend Glenn if you want your children to learn, enjoy and excel in chess."

I would highly recommend Glenn as a chess teacher.  He has helped

my son and many other children learn the fundamentals of chess

and be competitive players.  More importantly, he makes it fun for them

while teaching, and they enjoy attending his classes.  Joe Horning

"Glenn is an excellent Chess teacher. Glenn has been my

son's chess teacher for over 5 years and is continuing with Glenn.  Not only has Glenn taught my son the fundamentals of Chess, but he has helped my son focus attention, present himself with a calm demeanor in competition, and advance gracefully from failure.  These skills have allowed my son

to develop elegantly as a person at a young age and will continue to affect him throughout life.  Glenn has achieved the

esteemed title of Life Master of Chess, and we are honored

to learn from him.

Glenn did an excellent job introducing my five-year-old son to the game of chess.  My son had an opportunity to study with Challenging Heads Chess twice, and he has picked up quite a bit of chess knowledge - Most importantly, he had fun in the process.

My afterschool children are between the ages of 5 and 10.  I was looking for an engaging activity that would keep their attention.  A friend referred me to Glenn; I was pleasantly pleased with his teaching methods and his positive interactions with my children.

Glenn has served as a chess tutor/coach/mentor for my two children, aged 17 and 11.  His services have been superlative.  He is a great teacher and adjusts his technique and methodology as appropriate for each child's level of play.  I would HIGHLY recommend Glenn to others for similar work.

"The Borough of Conshohocken and the Conshohocken Free Library of Conshohocken thanks USCF Master Glenn Bady for his time in introducing our children and citizens to the game of Chess."

Mark Opalisky - Hatboro-Horsham School District President

"Thanks, Glenn, for your efforts this year.  Conner loves Chess."

Mother of Wes Champlin

"Great job with Wes.  He can usually be a handful.  Most of his teachers complain about him being such a busy body.  Winning the Kindergarten State Championship was an exciting experience.  He can't stop talking about it.  We'll see you this summer."

Mother of Calvin

"Thanks, Glenn, for a great year.  Calvin enjoyed himself, and for the first time, he has felt like he is a part of a team; chess has helped Calvin opened up to other kids his age."

Roy Schwartz

"Hey, Glenn.  It was nice to hear from you a few weeks ago.  I just wanted to let you know that Matt is doing well.  He is finishing up his tenure as President of the Chess Club and Captain of the Chess Team for his high school.  Further, he has been accepted to most of the business colleges he applied to but hasn't decided yet.  His college essay was all about how years of chess trained his mind and spirit to analyze situations, anticipate how his decisions will play out, and generally shape his worldview.  I don't recall if I have ever thanked you before for this gift you have given him.  So if I haven't....Thank you!!! Roy."
