Unfortunately, most chess books focus narrowly on specific topics. Learning unevenly (for example, becomming an expert on openings while neglecting tactics, strategy, and endgames) does little to improve performance in actual games. I am aware that to improve I need to have a well balanced diet of study, one that introduces bits of knowledge about all areas of chess, in an order going from basic to advanced.

It is difficult to figure out how to use this time wisely. Where do I start? Where do I go after that? With my very limited time resources I can only spend an hour or two per day on chess. The problem is that I've been like a starving man walking into a vast feast with every kind of food possible sitting on a vast table. I'm amazed at all the things I've been learning here about chess, things that I was completely clueless about for most of my life. I've been playing chess for over 30 years but my real chess education began when I joined. Very interesting discussion going on here. Something to investigate again in the future. I did have a premium membership to Chess Tempo, so that I could have custom problem sets.

I will mess around with this software a bit more before thinking of getting any other Convekta software. At first I didn't like it because I had to log out as user and log back on as administrator. I just did a few tactics using "Chess Tactics for Beginners" by Convekta Software. There are hundreds, no, thousands of music method books! I am surprised that there are not as many graded chess books as there are graded method books for musical instruments. Ever since age 7, all I have known for learning a skill (playing musical instruments) is going through graded method books. I have been feeling the same way as your chess friend. This is funny, because I recently discussed this topic with a chess friend of mine, who also happened to be a musician, and he told me exactly what you did about the scales method and the very best overall IMO is ChessTempo with customized SRS sets (subscription required) Elementary chess combinations and CT-Art (ChessOK) Seïrawan's winning chess tactics (not comprehensive but good) the recent 'Understand chess tactics' book (QC) Cor's Step method isn't comprehensive but very progressive

Has anyone finished every single tactics course in Chess Mentor, and what level (rating wise) did it go to ?ĭidn't the Russians have a highly developed/structured series of courses on chess, or maybe even chess schools, covering everything from A to Z, getting students from beginner to master? Where is THAT curriculum? Would I need to learn Russian? When I had a Diamond membership, I remember a graded tactics course in Chess Mentor (beginner and intermediate), but I don't remember how comprehensive or deep it went. Is there a graded course on tactics, in either book or software? I have yet to see tactics books in a long series, from level 1 to level 10, for example. With these graded music method books, I not only had a highly systematized structure for learning, but I could easily see my progress by simply looking back to book 1, after completing book 2.

Growing up a musician, I am accustomed to graded method books, i.e., Mel Bay, Guitar Book 1, Book 2, Book 3, etc. Is there a super duper, amazingly effective, graded chess tactics course, covering absolutely every type of tactic, from Attacking Castled King (59%) to Zwischenzug (36%) in one series of books, or one software program? So, this one member did not use Tactics Trainer to learntactics, but only to check his progress. Rinse and repeat, i.e., go through a different tactics puzzle book. Then use Tactics Trainer, but only as a test, to see if and how much your tactics rating improved. Has anyone here improved significantly in your Tactics Trainer rating, like going from 1200 to 1800 by ONLY doing Tactics Trainer?Ībout a year ago, someone posted something like this: to improve at tactics, complete one book on tactics puzzles slowly, then go through the book faster, and then a third time even faster, until those patterns become known, burned deep into the brain. I doubt that I will progress that much in rating by doing 25 puzzles a day, while doing nothing else to improve tactically. It's fun, but the process feels pretty random, with very little repetition of patterns, in order for them to stick in my brain forever.
