Kenny has been working part-time for the City since 2016 and many families might recognize him as a former chess instructor. He prepared lesson plans that were both fun and educational and throughout a lot of the pandemic, he taught classes virtually.
What was the best part of the job for him? “I enjoyed watching the students learn and gradually improve from the methods and tactics I taught. I even set up matches between students with some of them versus myself and they were quite excited to play against me.”
