3. Description of typical pawn endgame ideas
4. Difficulties that our students may encounter when studying the opposition.
5. Using the pawn endgame to train calculating variations, to develop strategic thinking, to develop logical thinking
6. Forms of training used in studying the pawn endgame
7. Other challenges for the trainer. Answers to the questions
