... but wants to get the hang of how to become better, how to have an overview about what's going on on the board, what tactics can be used and all that stuff, GM's seem to do easily

YT and homepages would be cool but I'm open for every other help, bc I just used to play for fun and wanna get to know more about chess as a serious sport ^^

Improving at chess can be quite challenging, but there are various ways to enhance your skills.

For those looking to improve without coaching, here's some valuable advice:

1. Play Frequently: The more you play, the better you'll become at recognizing patterns and making strategic decisions.
2. Analyze Your Games: Review your past games to identify mistakes and areas where you can improve. This self-analysis is a powerful learning tool.
3. Focus on Tactics: Tactics play a crucial role in chess. Spend time solving tactical puzzles and exercises to sharpen your tactical skills.
4. Learn from Masters: Studying grandmaster games can provide insights into advanced strategies and tactics.
