It’s no secret that most beginner games are decided by blunders. The question is: Who will spot and take advantage of them first? In this course, two-time Olympiad gold medalist and 2018 U.S. Champion Sam Shankland will help you build your awareness to spot decisive mistakes and take advantage of winning opportunities in real time.

To create this course, Shankland reviewed beginners’ games on Chess.com to pinpoint their most common pitfalls. He then identified the most critical things beginners need to practice to improve their results significantly. With this laser-focused approach and Shankland’s unique teaching technique, this course will help you play much stronger chess in no time. 

Learn how to improve your opening vision, spot unprotected pieces (even when they appear to be protected!), make the most of piece alignment, instantly recognize knight and pawn forks, and never stalemate in a won position again!
