Description

Hi and welcome to this course. I’m super excited to be here teaching you all about Chess endgames. Now, why a course about Chess endgames?


Most people view chess endgames as boring but a necessary evil. However, I have tried to make this course as fun as possible and have only covered the necessary parts that a beginner requires.


Remember that many beginners don’t even reach the endgame phase, but those that do reach have shockingly less knowledge of the endgame and draw or even lose positions that should be won or fail to draw positions that are clearly drawn. The aim of this course is to prevent those mis-steps from happening.


A quick introduction to myself - I’m a FIDE rated player and have several years of experience teaching beginners all about chess. More than that, I have several course in Udemy that are tailored towards beginners and this course draws from the experience that I have gained from what works best for beginners on this course.


Will learning the endgame techniques in this course dramatically improve your rating? Probably not, but the solid understanding that you gain with these endgames will help you sustain your rating and as with any other skill, chess is a matter of theory and practice. So the more games you play and the more chances you have to apply what you learn in this course, the better you will become as a player.

Sample of reviews from students:

Vedant Goswami (2300+ rated coach and player) - "Good ending material for beginners"

Saurav Kumar Karn - "Simplified way of teaching. It was great. Thank you.."

Vijay Kumar - "good"


Who this course is for:

  • Unrated to 1600 rated players who are looking to sharpen their endgame skills
  • Chess students who have never learnt anything about endgames
  • Intermediate players learning to add endgame skills to their arsenal
