MoveTrainer® uses spaced repetition to help you learn effectively. When you answer correctly, the time between reviews gradually increases. If you make a mistake, the system resets the timing, giving you a shorter interval before the next review to reinforce the material.

Here are the approximate times:

Each move in a variation has its own timer, meaning you can be at different levels within the same variation if you repeatedly get one move wrong.

Spaced repetition is widely recognized by scientists as one of the most effective methods for learning and retention. While it may feel repetitive initially, once you reach Level 8 for a move, you won’t see the same quiz for a long time—provided you continue solving it correctly!

It’s ideal to study as soon as a revision becomes active to fully benefit from spaced repetition. However, if you’re a bit late, don’t worry. At most, you may get a position wrong, and it will reset to Level 1. That’s perfectly fine, it's better to make mistakes during your study than in an actual game!
