It is best to start learning strategic play by studying endgames. It is far easier to learn how to handle a few pieces on the board at once than it is to learn openings when all 32 pieces are present.
If you want more help, let me know. I am an experienced chess trainer and coach.

Good advice. Thank you. I am an experienced chess trainer and coach.
Note to myself: If Warren wants to play for money, refuse.  |

Note to I_are_sceptical: I make way more money teaching than I do playing  Any games / lessons / analysis on CF are purely freebies. |
