Chess is a game with just a few rules that are not really too hard or complex to understand.
However, each game can seem overwhelming with the possible number of moves and combinations that can be made.
You can start to 'Play' in a very short time with some basic instructions of how the pieces move, but you can always learn and improve your knowledge, understanding, techniques, and strategies with more study and practice.
The topics presented here are designed to give you some 'early success' and also provide a foundation for future growth.
The game of chess is WON with checkmate. This usually occurs after a large amount of time and effort and the removal (capture) of many pieces. Beginners should start with 'simple' problems and examples and work backward adding pieces until they are ready to 'play' a full game.
Learning to play chess requires focus and discipline to master the new "Language". On-line Puzzles are a good way to practice and improve your chess playing ability.
Let me know if you find any errors or mistakes in my lessons or have an idea for a better way to present the material.
Good Luck on your Learning Adventure.
