I'm not a Beginner Beginner but I'm a Beginner

A Practical Primer for Learning Chess Beyond the Basics

You’ve learned how the pieces move, know the rules of the game, and maybe even some basic tactics. But maybe you’re not ready to dive into opening theory and grandmaster game analysis just yet.

Isn’t there a stepping stone in between?

You’ve found it! I’m Not a Beginner Beginner, But I’m a Beginner is the perfect bridge from learning the absolute basics to the finer points of chess strategy.

In this course, you’ll take your basic knowledge of the rules and learn how to make meaningful moves in real games through a combination of easy-to-follow lectures, practical exercises, and quizzes.

First, you’ll learn a simple yet effective 2-step approach to selecting every move, which will keep your king safe while simultaneously identifying attacking possibilities.

You’ll then come to understand the nature of each piece in the chess game one by one - from the pawns right up to the king and queen. By learning and practicing all the major patterns you need to know with each piece and repeating them with MoveTrainer™, you’ll learn to spot these themes by habit in your own games.

But one of the best parts of this course - you’ll not only learn concrete tactics and strategies, you’ll also get practical advice on how to think like an effective chess player.

Written by an Author Who Knows the Struggle

While there are a lot of great chess courses out there, some of them can be a little overwhelming for beginners. Many of the examples in those books are from master games - the types of positions that beginners likely won’t come across just yet.

That was the inspiration for this course - practicality! So the author, AITM19 - a Chessable improver himself - distilled the wisdom he learned from the best authors and chess coaches into the ultimate ‘second step course’ for beginners. The goal: to save beginners much of the time he spent by cutting down the intensive analysis and teaching the fundamentals in practical situations.

He accomplished that goal so well that this course was selected as a finalist in Chessable’s Create Your Own Course Contest! And it was so expertly crafted and full of good advice, we just had to publish it for the Chessable community.

So if you’re not a beginner beginner, but you’re a beginner, this is definitely the course for you. Get it today and take your knowledge of the basics to the next level.
