This course is for aspiring chess players who know how the pieces move and understand how to use some tactics such as forks and skewers but have never had any formal chess training.

Through easy to understand diagrams and chess positions, I will take you through the thought process of a master chess player and teach you everything you need to know to go from a mediocre player to a very strong one.

In this course you will learn how to find tactics over the board, make a strategic plan, and setup up your pieces for maximum effectiveness in the opening.

I have condensed information that took me many years of hard work into 16 powerful chess lessons. If you want to improve your chess in as short a time as possible, this is the course for you!

  • Increase tactical skills

  • Learn must know openings

  • Improve Rapidly!

Some good ideas but some annoying mistakes and presentation. Example when you're talking about moving piece from (say) c5 to f7, don't circle (say) c3 and g8, it just confuses people. Also, get your references right (g5 rather than g6, for example) when explaining principles.

The sliding along timeline of video is not working on mobile and on desktop and in web aswell. Bugs. Makes it hard to go back to see material at certain timing. Please fix it. Thank you.

Would be nice it were more interactive, or had more actual demonstrations on the board where they move pieces around to demonstrate concepts, rather than just talking over static screenshots.
