Endgame Course for Beginners with 339 Lessons and 886 Exercises!
The course is designed for beginners and is built upon three foundational courses: Beginners to Club, Chess Strategy for Beginners, and Total Chess Endings. We've meticulously chosen tasks that strike a balance between being challenging yet manageable for new players. The material is tailored for beginners, with ample explanations and hints to aid learning. A significant focus is placed on techniques for winning with an extra pawn, but we also emphasize mastering standard mating techniques, from those using heavy pieces to those involving a bishop and knight.
