Good for you! I love this game! My son actually taught me how to play and we went through a time when we would play everyday. Very fun and challenging! :)
How to learn to play chess
It made me
ACCOMPLISHED! 
"It was a lot of fun! I learned with the help from my class and it was a little hard to keep track of which piece did what move, but it was SO worth it!"
How I did it: Got a chess board, grabbed a few people who were obviously experts in that field, went over which piece did what, tried to remember which piece was which (why is the horse called a knight? That, I will never understand), played against my friend, Meghan, had her TRY to let me win, I captured her queen (which I told everyone)... but then she captured mine back :(
Overall, it was a great experience and I really want to go out and buy myself a chessboard!
