Learn to play chess like a pro with private lessons

The game of chess has seen a resurgence as of late. With the success of series like The Queen's Gambit and streamers on Twitch, chess is establishing itself as the king of board games. Of course, chess has always been popular, but now children and adults of every level are interested in learning how to play.

If you're interested in learning how to play chess or improving your game, here's how.

The History of Chess

While some may say that it's just a game, chess is so much more than that. Legend has it that the game was created in India to teach a king about the value of his subjects, which could explain why the king is one of the most useless-yet-important pieces in the game.

The game spread and evolved across Asia and was hugely popular in Persia and the Arab World. From there, it made its way into Europe and experienced a surge in popularity during Medieval Europe, where it took on most of the major changes that made it the game we know today.

Towards the end of the 19th century, chess became more tactical with players and experts analysing the game. In the early 20th century, FIDE (the International Chess Federation) was founded. This organisation has governed the game of chess since then and organises the World Chess Championship and the Junior World Chess Championship for under-20s.

Learning to Play Chess

Before you start going after a FIDE rating, you'll want to learn how to play chess and have a few games first. While chess takes years to master, it doesn't take much time at all to learn how to play.

To learn the basic rules, how to move and place pieces, and how the game works, you have quite a few options. You can learn how to play chess with a book. You just have to sit down, read the book, try to play a few games, and repeat until you remember how each piece moves and how you win a game.

In the modern age, however, you can also learn how to play chess online. There are plenty of interesting chess resources including chess websites, guides, and online chess games allowing you to play against other players (often of a similar level) or an AI opponent, who can learn and improve while offering training and coaching.

Finally, you can also learn to play chess from chess players, teachers, or tutors. If you're a member of a chess club, you can play and practise with other players or see if any of them offer chess lessons and tutoring. You can play against opponents face-to-face, online, by post, or even via email.

Joining Chess Clubs

We mentioned that learning to play chess can take years of practise and chess clubs are great places to get all this practice. While you can play chess online to your heart's content (and we recommend that you do), you can also join a chess club. If you're still in school, there may be a chess club you can join there, but if not, there are plenty of chess clubs all over the country offering a place for players to regularly play games, participate in events, and meet others interested in the game.

If you're looking for a chess club in Hull or around East Yorkshire, look no further than the Hull and District Chess Association. This association is a member of the English Chess Federation (ECF) and has a load of information on how to play chess as well as information on several chess clubs in and around Hull.

If you're still in school, make sure to ask if they have a chess club and if not, you could consider setting one up.

Participating in Tournaments and Events

One of the best things about playing chess is that you can participate in tournaments and events. While it's unlikely that you'll go straight to the British Chess Championship, there are a great number of national and international events taking place throughout the year and with online events, you can participate in a chess tournament almost any day of the calendar year!

There are chess events for junior players, ECF rated players, and FIDE rated players and while some are open to anyone, it's also common for events to require qualification. You can find more information about open events and tournaments on the ECF website as well as from the Hull and District Chess Association that we mentioned earlier.

Improving Your Chess Game with Private Tutors

In addition to joining a chess club, you can also get private tuition to learn how to play or improve your game. Even the very best players in the world can benefit from playing games against expert opponents and getting advice from a teacher, tutor, or coach.

Chess is a complex game and even after many years of playing, it can be useful to get feedback on your game. Not only can a tutor provide a valuable opponent for your games, but they can also offer up analysis of how you play, share tips and tricks on how to improve your game, and prepare you for events or competitions.

Finding a Chess Tutor in Hull and East Yorkshire

If you're looking for chess tutors in Hull or East Riding of Yorkshire, look no further than the Superprof website. You can

Even if you can't find any tutors in or around Hull, don't forget that there are plenty of online tutors available who can teach you how to play chess or how to improve your game.

Those on a budget might want to consider group tutoring. Not only does this make the sessions cheaper, but it'll give you more opponents to practise with, instead of playing against your tutor every day.

A lot of the tutors on the Superprof website offer their first lesson for free. Contact a few of them and use these free sessions to work out which tutor is right for you. As we mentioned, learning to play chess well can take a long time so you must get on well with your tutor.
