Chess Coach & Chess Storyteller — Krrid Academy

About the Role

Krrid Academy is looking for a Chess Coach who can turn a chess position into a story.

We are looking for someone who understands that great chess communication is not only about explaining a move correctly.

It is about how you say it.

The right candidate should have the ability to take a critical position, a brilliant combination, a mistake or a complete game and present it through storytelling, metaphors, expressive language, engaging phrases, and a naturally captivating voice.

We want someone whose communication can make a child curious, make a parent stop scrolling and make an audience want to hear what happens next.

This role combines Chess Coaching + Storytelling + Voice & Communication + Video Content Creation.

What You’ll Do

- Conduct high-quality 1-to-1 and group chess classes for children.
- Explain chess concepts, critical moves, tactics, and strategic ideas in a highly engaging manner.
- Turn chess positions and games into compelling stories rather than simply giving technical explanations.
- Use metaphors, analogies, phrases, expressions and narrative techniques to make chess easier and more memorable.
- Communicate naturally and confidently on camera.
- Create short-form and long-form chess content for Instagram, YouTube and Krrid Academy’s social platforms.
- Record educational reels, storytelling videos, advertisements, and promotional content.
- Use your voice and presentation style to help build Krrid Academy’s public identity.
- Create content that attracts parents, children, and aspiring chess learners.
- Collaborate with the Krrid team to develop high-engagement content ideas.




- Maintain a fixed teaching schedule along with a consistent content-production schedule.

What We’re Looking ForWe are looking for someone who has:

- Strong chess knowledge and coaching ability.
- Experience teaching children, preferably in a structured coaching environment.
- Excellent verbal communication and storytelling ability.
- A clear, expressive, and pleasant voice/accent that works well for video and voice-over content.
- The ability to play with language, use metaphors, and create memorable explanations.
- Strong on-camera presence and confidence.
- The ability to make an ordinary chess position sound interesting.
- The ability to communicate effectively with both children and parents.
- Creativity and an instinct for content that can hold attention.
- Reliability and consistency with scheduled classes and content production.

FIDE rating is a strong advantage.

However, your rating is not the only thing we care about.

We are looking for the person who can look at a position and say:

“Your opponent thinks the king is protected.But sometimes, the safest-looking king is the one standing closest to danger.”

That ability to make someone see chess differently is what matters to us.

CompensationTeaching Compensation

- ₹300 per 1-to-1 class

- Number of videos produced
- Video length
- Consistency
- Quality of content
- Storytelling and presentation
- Voice and communication
- Audience engagement
- Overall value of the content

What This Opportunity Can BecomeThis is not intended to be a conventional chess coaching position.

The right candidate can become one of the recognisable voices and faces of Krrid Academy.

You will have the opportunity to:

- Build a strong public-facing chess content portfolio.
- Appear in Krrid’s Instagram and YouTube content.
- Create educational and promotional videos.
- Develop your own on-camera and storytelling identity.
- Work on high-engagement reels and advertisements.
- Reach a growing audience of parents and children.
- Take on greater creative and coaching responsibilities as Krrid grows.
- Build a long-term career chance with Krrid Academy based on performance.

- Who We Really WantWe are not simply looking for someone who can say: “This move wins the game.”

We want someone who can make a child think:

“Wait… why did he play that?”

And then tell the story so beautifully that they stay until the end to find out.

If you can combine strong chess, exceptional communication, storytelling, personality and camera presence, we want to hear from you.

Immediate hiring for the right candidate.

- Join Krrid Academy and help us make chess not just something children learn — but something they love listening to, watching and understanding.
