Classroom Now Available: Perfect Tool For Coaches

Hello Coaches! Yesterday, we announced the release of classroom, a feature designed especially for coaches and students conducting small group sessions and seminars with video and audio in the simplest way possible.

We encourage you to read the full announcement, but here are some feature highlights:

• an all-in-one solution for chess lessons: no need for a chess board + zoom/skype/whatever combo
• easily add students, parents, and colleagues: just share the URL or your classroom with anyone you want
• easily toggle on/off video, audio, and chat
• add multiple games quickly from a variety of sources: PGN, FEN, library, Chess.com archives, explorer, and lichess studies
• free for two students, unlimited students with any premium host membership
• give students control over the board to make moves, play as White or Black, and draw arrows and highlights
• toggle cameras, audio, and chat for students
• toggle off open enrollment to create an invite-only classroom

We really hope you enjoy classroom and find it a perfect tool for lessons. We'd love to answer any questions you have about the feature in the comments, and please do share suggestions as well!
