“AN ENDGAME EXPERT”

by GM Igor Smirnov

I would like to give you a few recommendations, which will make your
study of the video lessons more effective.

Ø Focus on a study. Turn off your mobile phone, music, TV etc.

Ø Stop (pause) a video lesson sometimes. When you stop the video,
you can THINK about an interesting idea and digest it better. It is
very important to do it.

Ø Print the text versions of the video lessons. When you think about
different ideas of the course, you will see them at the same time. It
is very helpful.
After a study of one video lesson, please look through its text
version. Pay attention to the enhanced font - it will help you to
remember all the key ideas.

Ø Write the important ideas. While studying the video lessons you will
find a lot of useful rules, principles and so on. Also you will probably
make your own conclusions. If you write them, you will remember
and classify them better.

Ø Make pauses. Your brain needs to have some free time to digest
new information. Don’t try to study everything at once.

Ø Repeat the lessons. Study the lessons several times. Of course it is


hard to remember a lot of information after a quick acquaintance.
So you need to repeat it sometimes.
