ChessTeacherLessons is also an interesting site to learn and improve your chess. At the moment there are more than 100 chess lessons on almost all the stages of the game and for all levels of play on this site. I advice to start at the chess lessons index page, but you can also navigate through the site by using the tags or categories.
The site doesn’t contain chess news and isn’t very frequently updated, but I like the chess lessons.
Tim Krabbé’s Chess Curiosities looks like a very simple site and does not even have it’s own domain name, but the content of this site is really interesting. As the name indicates it contains a lot of chess curiosities. The most interesting parts are the Open chess diary and the chess records. The chess records are records from real games.
Chessville offers a lot of free high quality chess content, though not as much as ChessCafe and the front page is a little bit confusing. However it is certainly worth visiting this site and the list of columnists is very impressive.
The section that I have to recommend most is Tactics, so don’t forget to explore this area when visiting this site.
Chesscafe.com is certainly one of the best chess sites on the internet. This free site contains a lot of very interesting columns, chess lessons and puzzles.
My favorite columns are The Kibitzer by Tim Harding and The Instructor by Mark Dvoretsky, but I also like The Openings Explained by Abby Marshall very much.
Don’t forget to check out the Archives. Here you can find and download all the articles, reviews and endgame studies that have appeared at ChessCafe.com.
