​WeChat is becoming a powerful communication tool, mostly among Chinese people. It's very similar to Whatsapp, but much easier to use and more flexible. As a coach coming from China, I am an active user of WeChat. I have several groups that dedicate to Chess, and one group for English-speaking parents. So I really urge you to install WeChat and connect with me on WeChat.

Benefits for using WeChat:
- much easier to reach me
- easier to communicate with other parents
- get class announcements and other notification earlier
- I also present a chess puzzles everyday

You can get WeChat at Apple Store or Google Play.

Or follow the next two articles:

After installation, search for my ID: dongyaofeng8888
