This class is intended for beginners or for those who have never played chess before. No experience or knowledge necessary. The class covers all the basics (how the pieces move, the rules, etc.) plus some next-step topics like tactics and strategy (forks, pins, discovered attacks and more). The class is structured so that I will teach a concept, give exercises, then go through the answers with all the students. I will teach with a big chess demonstration board next to me in the video frame. My teaching style is informative yet at the same time fun and casual, so students can enjoy the experience. Learners will get to interact with me throughout the entire class by asking and answering questions, playing a game of chess with me, etc.
