New to Chess
Never played before? Start here.
The absolute fundamentals — how each piece moves, how a game is won, and the very first checkmate patterns every new player needs.
Beginner
Know the rules — now build good habits.
Opening principles, piece values, notation, and the core two-piece checkmate patterns that turn a rule-follower into a real player.
Intermediate
Openings are second nature — sharpen your tactics.
Forks, pins, skewers, one-move mating patterns, and the mental process for reasoning through a position like a stronger player.
Advanced
Tactics are solid — refine positional understanding.
Pawn structure (doubled, isolated, backward pawns), zwischenzug, and the fundamental minor-piece and king-and-pawn endgames every strong player must know cold.
