Course overview
Goswami begins with the board and pieces before developing basic game concepts, tactics and endgames. The sequence connects rules with decisions a player encounters during a game. It provides a broad starting foundation rather than concentrating on memorizing one opening or solving puzzles without explanation.
What you will learn
- Understand board coordinates and piece movement
- Recognize introductory tactical patterns
- Review basic endgame ideas
Who this suits
A fit for a new chess learner who wants a systematic introduction and can practise positions on a physical board or a suitable chess application.
Before you enroll
The provider specifies an internet connection and recommends a board or chess software for practice. About three hours and 11 minutes of video are listed, updated October 2015. Fundamental rules remain useful, while software references may be dated. Completion does not establish a playing rating or tournament qualification.
Udemy offers paid purchase or subscription access depending on the current course and region. Paid teaching courses provide completion certificates under Udemy’s policy. Check current access terms and any separate software or material costs before enrolling.
Put it into practice
Set up several simple positions and explain the legal moves before choosing one. After a practice game, identify one tactical opportunity you missed and replay the position without using an engine immediately.
