Workbook 2

Over a decade ago, WIM Laura Moylan, FIDE Master Brett Tindall and a group of other Sydney Academy Of Chess coaches got together to explore methods to improve our coaching. A few ideas were sketched out and one of them, on top of the list, was to produce a workbook which would help kids to learn chess a little bit quicker.

Hundreds of hours later, the first Sydney Academy of Chess Workbook was released. And it was very successful (and still is!), mainly due to:

• The book is filled with coloured diagrams, arrows, highlighted squares.
• Simple, direct language.
• 100 pages.
• The lessons have to do with the topics covered during our live lessons at schools.
• The book combines both explanations and puzzles to confirm that the student has actually understood the topic.
• The pricing is very reasonable: $25 per workbook, or $40 for both.
