Study Plan

Sort:
All_Exceed

Hello chess enthusiasts! I have been looking for ways to create a study plan for me. I've got little info about making a personal study plan for oneself after analyzing the phase of game you need more work & phase where you need less practice. Well, but I have some questions regarding them. A usual study plan can have these elements in them: Opening, tactics, positional play (strategy), endgames, etc. Can anyone tell me how to stat practicing each thing? For eg, Openings. Where can I study or learn openings? How many moves do I have to study for each opening.(Considering I'm a beginner, I wouldnt have to remember 15/20 moves since my opponents usually play non book moves and which is pretty obvious at this level.) Let's take Tactics now. Should I practise the tactics which are available here on chess.com or shoul i refer to something else like a book or app? Please help me regarding these questions! Kindest Regards, Saurav
