Understanding the opening principles is very important. One of these is, to not move pawns unnecessarily. It is better to develop all your pieces.

Your queen isn’t your first piece — it’s your last.
Qd7 looks natural and it just locked in your own bishop.

This is exactly the kind of habit we fix in Zero to 600 — live, 6 weeks, 10 students max. Link in bio.

Apps are great for reps — puzzles, quick games, tracking your rating. What they’re not great at is feedback: telling you what to actually focus on next based on your specific games. That’s the piece most beginners are missing. You can have five chess apps on your phone and still be stuck, because none of them are watching what YOU did wrong last game and telling you what to fix — they’re just giving you more content and a number. A path means a real person looking at your actual games and giving you immediate, specific feedback, not just another drill.

Starting July 28, I’m running a 6-week beginner chess class. Complete beginners are welcome — whether you’ve never played a game or you know the rules but aren’t sure what to do next.
Small group (max 10), live on Google Meet, Tuesdays at 6:30 PM EST. I’m a FIDE-rated player, and this is hands-on coaching — not just videos, but real feedback on your own games.

What’s included:
• 6 weeks of live coaching
• A guided step-by-step game plan
• Private Discord + weekly puzzles
• Every session recorded to rewatch
• Personal reviews of your own games

Founding price is $149 (going up to $197 after this round). Enrol by July 24 to grab a seat.

Comment “ZERO” or send me a message if you want the signup link — happy to answer any questions too.

Hi everyone! Wanted to share something I’ve been putting a lot of work into.
I’m Tom — a FIDE-rated chess player, and teaching the game is honestly one of my favorite things to do. There’s a specific moment with beginners where it just clicks — where they stop randomly moving pieces and start actually seeing the board and planning ahead. I love getting to be part of that.
Starting July 28, I’m running a 6-week beginner chess class, live on Google Meet, Tuesday evenings. Complete beginners are totally welcome — whether you’ve never played a single game or you know the rules but keep losing pieces for free and aren’t sure why. It’s a small group, only 10 spots, so you actually get real feedback instead of just watching a lecture.
Here’s what’s included:

• Live coaching every week
• A step-by-step game plan (not just random tips)
• Weekly puzzles and a private Discord for questions
• Every session recorded, so you won’t miss anything if life gets busy
• A personal review of your own games

Founding price is $149 (goes up to $197 after this round), and enrollment closes July 24.
If you’ve ever wanted to actually learn chess instead of just knowing how the pieces move, I’d love to have you. Comment or message me — happy to answer questions before you commit to anything.
