Coach Moment
One idea per game
After every game the Coach picks the turning point, explains it in a sentence, and lets you replay it from the other side.
Twelve lessons
From the pieces to the pawn ending
Loose pieces, forks, pins, discovered attacks, back-rank mates, the two basic mates — each on a real board, each with an answer for the wrong move.
Fair play
Honest, and written down
Server-checked moves, no engine help during rated games, a person before any restriction, and an appeal. Read the statement.
