This class is for young learners who can already play chess, but haven't yet gotten a firm handle on tactics and strategy - a great followup course to take after finishing one of our "Become a Chess Pro: Intro for Beginners" courses. Some of the lessons include taking a deeper look at the strategies discussed in the previous course, while other lessons introduce brand new topics altogether. Each week's lesson starts with about 30 minutes of explanation and discussion, followed by, for the remaining duration of each class, virtual chess games between the classmates, supervised by the instructor. Schedule of Lessons (first 30 minutes of each class): Week 1: Review of Basic Rules & Introduction to Chess Notation Week 2: Scholar's Mate & Fool's Mate Week 3: Back Rank Checkmate Week 4: Smothered Mate Week 5: Arabian Checkmate & Hallway Checkmate Week 6: Knight & Queen Checkmate (and other attacks) Week 7: The King & Queen Sandwich Checkmate Week 8: Conclusion: Review, Chess Puzzles, and more Schedule of Virtual Games (final 30 minutes of each class): Week 1: Practice Games with instructor coaching Week 2: Practice Games with instructor coaching Week 3: Practice Games with instructor coaching Week 4: Practice Games with instructor coaching Week 5: In-class tournament Round 1 games Week 6: In-class tournament Round 2 games Week 7: In-class tournament Round 3 games Week 8: Awards Ceremony (all students will be sent certificates of completion and tournament award ribbons)

Our classes are primarily directed at elementary & middle-school-aged children, and are organized into 8-week semesters of once-weekly 60-minute long classes (8 meetings total), each comprised of approximately 30 minutes of lecture format followed by approximately 30 minutes of organized play between the students. We've been teaching these classes locally for years, but now are excited to share them with the rest of the world thanks to Outschool!
