Hello,
I'm an American teaching English as a second language in South Korean public schools. My school this year has asked me if I'd be interested in organizing an after school activity club for students.

I'd like to do something and I was thinking of starting a chess club. I've never participated in one before and I'm just an ordinary player.

So, what do I do? Can you recommend any websites or books? Any input would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Patrick
