Welcome, they don't explain the tactics very well though. Deflection, removing the defender, forks, skewers etc...

Check out this site for that stuff and try the tactic puzzles.

There's this great chess site which explains what each of the tactic themes are but I can remember the name. Maybe some can post it on here?
