Grandmaster Aleksandar Colovic is one of the most experienced and prolific authors on Chessable.
As the first grandmaster author on the site, by this point he’s got his courses down to a science - and his rave reviews show it. His popular The Najdorf Sicilian: Simplified shows his ability to break down complex openings and make them accessible to players of all skill levels.
For the joy of many fans, he turned the Simplified format of courses, into a series, with The King's Indian: Simplified coming out almost three years after its predecessor. Loaded with textual explanations of the key strategical concepts, in those, GM Colovic delivers playable mini-repertoires for Black in just 100 trainable variations.
In fact, you could easily build an opening repertoire with his detailed opening courses. Just pick your favorites!
With thorough coverage of the Queen’s Gambit Declined, Slav, Anti-Sicilians, and more, GM Colovic can get your openings ready for tournament play in no time.
His practical knowledge stems from extensive experience on the tournament scene himself. In addition to winning 18 national championships, he has proudly represented his native Macedonia in three Chess Olympiads and two European Championships - not to mention the plenty of experience he has coaching students to their own successes in the very same tournaments.
But as GM Colovic will tell you himself, life as a tournament player just doesn’t suit him - he’s a natural coach and teacher, and he’s dedicated to his craft. Just try out one of his courses below and see for yourself. After taking his thorough yet pragmatic lesson, you’ll quickly see “the Colovic effect” in your own games.
