#Chess for beginner

[motorizedduck]

Just today I got to see a chess book that I remember reading as a little kid. While it didn't give me a lifelong passion for chess, it did give me a lifelong passion for fantasy for its artwork.

The book is "Chess for Young Beginners" from 1975, and here's some of the artwork:

Like, this artwork goes hard. I especially appreciate the colour scheme for the black pieces, with its browns, bronzes, reds and oranges.

This artwork is amazing, evocative, exciting and dramatic. I recommend giving it a look if you have a chance - you can probably scrounge up a PDF of this thing with a bit of searching.

Can't believe I never asked this before but what's your irl experience with chess lol

Minimal! Up until I started writing the chess club au I only knew the basics (aka how to set up the board and how the pieces move). Once I decided to start planning it, I started studying a bit more. I got on chess.com and started playing, I read a few books, studied a few games (including the game I based Jane and Maura’s legendary states match on). Now I know some basic strategies and moves (castling, smothered mates, a few openings) and can read chess notation with no problem. I would say I’m still VERY amateur. I can beat most of the people I know irl but I’ve played against children at the library and lost fair and square.

The Amazing Benefits of Taking Beginner Chess Lessons

For hundreds of years, the game of chess invites players of all ages with mental challenges and personal development.

By recognising these merits, you will, whether you are a novice yourself or training someone else to become so, be better placed to appreciate the necessity of adhering to adequate learning from the outset..

 Builds Critical Thinking Skills

The correct guidance when learning a chess course for kids enables you to improve your skill of considering other perspectives when facing decisions.

Using a structured approach, you get to be in a position where you have the capacity to evaluate strategic situations, seeing the future, and planning well ahead of time which comes in handy in dealing with day to day challenges.

Provides a Strong Foundation of Knowledge

Those who teach themselves chess can end up not only having bad habits but also a lot of misunderstandings, which would make them hard to correct later. By following Beginner lessons, you are instructed to learn the correct first impression of the chess basics and correct ways. Teachers present central chess concepts incrementally, beginning with simple strategies, moving to opening strategies, concentrated on tactical motifs, ending with complex endgame skills. 

Accelerates Learning Through Targeted Practice

For novices in playing chess, questioning is difficult in which skill or which move should receive their attention and practice. The lack of professional advice in most cases will lead to time spent in performing exercises or training techniques that do not contribute to progress. Under the supervision of a professional, players are provided with exercises and games for practice corresponding closely to the key components of awareness in chess. 

Enhances Focus and Patience

Practice in chess is concentrated with its need and development of focused attention over time as their trading card game. This helps sharpen mental discipline. More and more, the ability to concentrate on tricky jobs is an ability that shines in the world where digital gadgets and temporary frenzy compete for our attention. Chess mentors show novices to a variety of concentration exercises to explain how they can develop techniques of concentration for extended analysis and long games. 

Creates Social Connections and Opportunities

Joining the chess world by participating in introductory classes gives you the opportunity to meet others who are interested in playing chess. Attending chess classes usually gathers individuals that support one another and appreciatively celebrate each other’s successes. The nearby tournaments, clubs, and activities matching your experience will be known to your instructor, giving you access to the larger chess community. 

Conclusion

Beginner chess lessons bring advantages that go beyond teaching you the basic moves of chess pieces. Guided lessons from Chessbrainz speed up the development process because it prevents you from making the elementary mistakes that stunt learning. Laying out skills such as the ability for critical analysis, patience, attention, and strategic foresight in chess, has long-term effects as it makes you more effective in many life scenarios.
