• A blend of European and North American traditional and modern chess teachings
• Easy to follow and use by players of any level or by chess teachers and instructors

It has helped our students reach the highest levels of performance such as:

This app follows the highly successful teaching method already experimented at various chess clubs. Although our students are children and youth, the app is intended for chess lovers of any level up to a 2000 national rating. The rating levels are provided for guidance only and are set based on over 300 students’ real experiences. Still we cannot guarantee you will achieve them. Ultimately, you are responsible for your own chess performances.

Our levels 1 to 5 provide you with the essential information and over 1,000 carefully selected puzzles to help you lay down the proper chess knowledge foundation. Chess can still be enjoyed when learned the right way. This is your opportunity to learn it with us!

Ratings and Reviews
Basic errors in the puzzles
I have already found basic errors in the puzzles. If I didn't know a little about chess, I wouldn't have noticed.
Apparent Bug in App
When you complete the last puzzle of a section the app will not check it off as complete on the puzzles summary page. This makes it very difficult (and annoying) to accurately track your progress over time. Good start but developer did not test it enough--you find this problem after using the app 5 minutes.
Needs checking
App is nice and compact. I have the first two levels. I wish for more information on the lessons. Like many chess books etc they tell you the what but not the why of certain tactics and strategies.
There are also some errors in the puzzles where pieces seem to be missing. They need to check each one for accuracy.
