Recent reviews

This is a great way to learn the basics of chess and pickup some techniques. For the most part the lessons follow a logical development, but they can get off into the weeds from time to time with too many variations to keep up with in a short lesson. But chess isn't a simple game. One thing missing is more puzzles independent of the lessons. But by the time you are ready for those you will probably already be onto Lichess or Chess.com.
