Academy: from a rule to your first move
You can now explore the Academy from its own page. Choose a game, look at a learning position and try to find the move.
One idea at a time
The catalogue includes 20 chess and 12 draughts lessons. First moves, mandatory captures, castling, promotion and tactical ideas are explained through concrete positions.
The draughts exercises follow Russian draughts on an 8×8 board. International draughts and English checkers use different rules.
