This course features over 1400 chess exercises, each presenting a simplified position with only a few pieces on the board.
If you're just starting out in chess, giving away your pieces within a single move is not an option—especially if you're serious about improving! Likewise, missing the opportunity to capture an undefended piece from your opponent is equally costly. That's why this course, with its extensive collection of over 1400 exercises, serves as a powerful training tool for aspiring beginners.
The course is designed for players who already understand the basic rules of chess. Even by solving just 20% of the exercises, you'll notice a significant improvement in your ability to avoid blunders and spot winning opportunities during real games. All exercises are derived from actual games and are categorized by the type of piece involved and the level of difficulty, ensuring a structured and effective learning path.
This course is part of the Chess King Learn series, a revolutionary approach to chess education. The series covers all aspects of the game—including tactics, strategy, openings, middlegame, and endgame—and caters to learners at every stage, from newcomers to seasoned professionals.
By using this program, you’ll deepen your chess knowledge, discover new tactical patterns and combinations, and apply what you've learned directly in practice.
