Can you suggest me some youtube channels where the player explain his moves while playing, not just analysing after the game.

Eric Rosen is very clear and a superb resource.

Hi. I believe ChessNetwork channel deserves a mention.

John Bartholomew in his climbing the rating ladder series

The ones that I've found most instructive are John Bartholomew's Chess Fundamentals and Climbing the Rating Ladder playlists and Daniel Naroditsky's Speedrun and Chess Mastery Explained playlists.

Yeah John Bartholomew's Climbing the Rating Ladder videos are very good.

Agree with the John Bartholomew recommendation, plus the GingerGM long play videos are excellent.

Short answer - John Bartholomew. After going through chess fundamentals and climbing the rating ladder, you should check out his standard playlist - around 300 videos there. He discusses all of his moves and even potential moves. You can hear his entire thought process.

Daniel Naroditsky and also John Bartholomew, but he doesn’t seem to be doing climbing the rating ladder anymore

He made one video in that playlist around 2 weeks ago:

My bad, I thought he was only doing beating the clock videos now

Until a month or 2 ago, he was only doing titled Tuesday videos for quite some time. Now he is pretty active again and doing many different series. By the way, you are right about Naroditsky as well, his latest videos are amazing. Though a bit of caution. You can get the feeling that what he does is super easy the way he describes it. It is only easy for someone like him. grin.png

Two other channels I would recommend:

Los Angeles Chess Club

MSK chess (he has not posted in a long time, but his content is very good and worth looking at)

Without a doubt the best chess youtube channel is "ChessNetwork". I would highly, highly recommend watching his "Game reviews" where he reviews games of weaker players. For example this video

Also his beginner to chess master series is good but the best videos he makes are of game reviews and (if you are a stronger player) of grandmaster game analysis.

Absolutely, the most under rated chess channel to be honest.
