Basic 25 daily tactics and basic fork/pin...puzzles, I love to practice more drills. Which drills are practical for my level?

For the method described in the link, maybe start with something like mate in 1 or 2 puzzles.

I improve my visualization with chessvis app from chessvisualization.com

It also exercises analysis in general.

But ok, you may have other drills you use for that, that's fine.

You answer is very helpful to me but I am looking for drills suggestion. There are a lot of them but I believe only few of them are helpful to me at my level.

Hmm, I think I misunderstood the question.

Can you give an example of a drill? Is this something you'd only be doing on an app, or just any kind of drill?

I would love to do one same drill of each category everyday until I feel confident, instead of play online opponent. Do you have any recommendation?

Oh, nice.

i would start with the “endgame fundamentals” section and just start with the first one- eventually you’ll get to where they are really hard to do

Try the checkmate drills and get them down first, bishop and knight and double bishops.

I HAVE NO CHOICE! The Endgame drills & the odds drills are the only 2 I am able to play now! Level 10 computer is a beast on other drills T.T Why can't I decide the computer level or at least, give me the option to "play with the current position"
