These drills will help you to develop your calculation skills.<\/p>\n<h2>Endgame Suggestion:<\/h2>\n<p>In the endgame, you should look for creating passed pawn, and learn rook endgames. Learn pawn and rook and learn two pawns and rook.<\/p>\n<h3>Conclusion:<\/h3>\n<p>With black pieces learn Scandinavian Qa5 variation. For middlegame, learn and solve tactics. And for the endgame, learn rook endgame and try to create passed pawn.
