Description

Tips for New Listeners:


Study the game first, then listen to the audio and see how well you can visualize the moves.  If you find the exercise too difficult, try looking at the board every two moves, and as your confidence grows, every three moves, then every four, and so on.  Over time, your board vision will grow.
