In this course you will learn the rules of Go in all of their simplicity and splendor.
The rules of Go could in fact be presented in a single video lesson. This course however has a different purpose. It is meant to make sure you can play your first games even without a teacher standing over your shoulder. Not only will you learn Go rules but you will also acquire some basic Go skills. All of this will help you have more fun playing Go and maybe even get your first wins.
After learning the rules of Go, we recommend trying to play a few games (on a 9×9 board) and then proceed to the next course — The Fundamentals of Go on 13×13. Also take a look at this beginner’s guide.

Great!
This interactive course has been made with quality and structure in mind. It guides the viewer through basic concepts step by step and sequentially elaborates on them until complex elements are developed. The quality of the video editing is spectacular, and the learning is strengthened through practice in the exercises. This is straightforward, clear, and aesthetically appealing course. 10/10.
Thank you
love the interactive learning
Love it <3
Extremely useful. I was new to Go and graduated with 96%. So exciting, to.
I liked this a lot, it teaches Go in a very understandable and meaningful way and gives enough basic knowledge to not be cut off at a cliffhanger. The free course, in that way, is a full package of the go fundamentals.
This was an easy to understand introductory course. The quizzes allowed you to practice what was taught which helped to solidify some of the concepts. I will be recommending to my friends.

The lessons are simple and basic enough to understand for someone who has never learned the game before. The quizzes are a bit difficult to understand at times with what they are talking about but at the same time it could just be the fact that I'm learning so I'll only knock a half point off... 4.5 awesome!
Love the clear explanations and the interactive videos. Quizzes get progressively more challenging, perfect for beginner's growth.
Very useful. My son told me about this website, and now I'm thrilled to get past the ABCs of Magic with this fantastic course.
Well made interactive lessons which make you apply what you are learning. Videos are very well edited and the teacher makes them quite interesting.
Excellent! This was exactly the comprehensive and beginner friendly Go resource I was looking for. Vadim is an excellent teacher. The tests in the middle of the videos is ingenious.
This is now my "Go"-to course to recommend for friends as I preach and try to make new players in my country. Thank you so much for such a quality course.
I like how after the explanation there are practice questions. On top of that, the explanations are very entertaining, making the learning process more enjoyable. But my problem with the questions is that if I get a move wrong I don't get a refutation for my move. I found myself confused on why my answer was incorrect more than once.
Thank you very much for this helpful courses! You describe the rules of Go in a very sympathic and clear way! I would like to know more and watch advanced cources with you - how can I do this?
Good introduction, love the quizzes.
Great beginner course! Well done Vadim!
This was a splendid way to re-brush up on my fundamentals after being away from this wonderful game for years. I especially loved the interactive aspect, and how the problems subtly pushed me to think outside the box and see the whole board- not just the "obvious" areas of interest.
