Improving at chess is usually not easy. If you can afford few lessons, I would advise getting a coach. I can teach you how to think during the chess game. After that, your progress is inevitable.

If you can't afford any lessons, here is the excerpt from very good article on how to improve:

Play a lot, analyze your games, and primarily study tactics. Your knowledge of openings, endgame, middlegame, etc. will come from analyzing your games and going over grandmaster games. Only study one of those specific topics if it is clear you are specifically losing because of that topic.

Here is the great YT series from my channel to learn from as well: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUrgfsyInqNa1S4i8DsGJwzx1Uhn2AqlT

Good luck either way! happy.png

Make sure to complete the beginner/intermediate chess.com lessons and onwards, doing the puzzles after each one. Chess.com puzzles are your friend, too. They will help improve at seeing tactics and calculating correctly. If you do not want to pay for subscription do your one daily chess.com lesson and do the puzzles on lichess, but I can vouch for a chess.com subscription for the infinite puzzles and lessons. You absolutely have to do puzzles to improve quickly, nothing is better for improving at tactics.

Then you can also study the specific openings you want to play to help you understand the themes and ideas for the opening, not just the moves in the correct order. If you are playing completely blind in most or all of your games you are putting yourself at a huge disadvantage as you won't understand the position as well as if you have studied the opening

Finally you also have to play in order to put what you have learned into practice, obviously.
