I'm looking for any advice on a self-study regimen for improving at chess. I am a beginner and have been balancing playing online with tactics training @chess.com. Are there any suggested learning paths that have proven sucessful for others that you can share?
TY Jeff!!!! You can try my book you gave me. I looked through it and it gives good info!!

This is a popular improvement/study plan that I have myself followed (although I have modified and improved on it in my own training) and should put you in the right direction.
