Training structure

Avatar of ICchess12

Hi guys, I have been playing for a little while now and I want put in some form of learning structure. I do plenty of puzzles, with a rating hovering around 2200, but I want to learn some other skills. I am going off the premise that we should learn endgames first (please correct me if I am wrong). What are the endgames I should learn, and in what order? Also if you could guide me to a good Youtube resource that would be great.

Thank you.

You are 1000.
Your games are not decides by presice endgame technique or knowledge.
Learning endgames here is like teaching a new soccer player about top level strategy before the rules of the game.
What I recommend you do is focus on the middle games and tactics as that is what 95% of your games will be decided in.
Here is a link for a study plan if you want:

https://chessmood.com/chess-study-plans/for-intermediate-players

They do some advertising in there on their own courses (which honestly are really good), so you can either ignore that or follow it.

Additionally, if you want, I am trying to get experience as a coach and am willing to help you (free).
Just message my Lichess account for that (ARMANDAS_130).

However, just follow the study plan and you definitely gain in rating!
Hope this helps :)
