Lesson Discounts!
Hey all, as many of you are well aware; I have just recently
started to coach here at chess.com. I usually charge $20.00 per hour, but for a
limited time, I will be charging $15.00 per hour. Also, I have added many, many
more options to my coach profile. I just wanted to give a brief description of
each one here:

1 hour lesson
|
I give the student a 1 hour lesson (usually I go over time
for about 15 min) where the student has the opportunity to learn whatever I
feel would be most beneficial to him. Through these lessons I improve not
only the opening, middle game, and endgame, but I also improve thought
process, tactical vision, and positional skills.

$15.00 for a limited time only!

Deep Analysis
|
If you are having trouble improving and want some help
identifying your weaknesses, then send me a game that you played and I will
analyze it. I will pick it apart and point out your mistakes and identify
your weaknesses. This will help you to design a way to work on your
weaknesses.

$10.00 only!

|
Correspondence Game w/ me along with postgame analysis
|
Correspondence Chess is one of the best ways to improve.
It gives you time to analyze each and every move and play the best possible
continuation. If you are looking to have someone identify your weaknesses,
then feel free to play me. After the game, I will give you analysis and tips.

|
Live Game with Postgame analysis
|
This option is very similar to the option listed previously,
but it simulates real conditions and allows me to assess your skill with a
certain time restraint. It will give you an opportunity to show what you
would play like in a tournament and lets me identify your key weaknesses. After
the game, I will analyze it with you on the analysis board in live chess.

Opening Preparation
|
If you are looking for help on a specific opening, then
this would be a great option for you. With this, I will create an opening
tree that includes all the variations. This option allows you to do your own
study of the opening when you have time, so it doesn’t have to be all at
once. It is great for tournament preparation!

Ultimate Package
|
If you are a really dedicated student and want to improve
very quickly, then I suggest that you buy this. It is what I call the “Ultimate
Package” where you get 5 lessons and 1 game with me along with postgame
analysis. I also will throw in some optional homework assignments and a few
blitz games so that you have the opportunity to practice what I teach you. It
includes 2 opening lessons, 2 middlegame lessons, 1 endgame lesson, 5 blitz
games, and optional homework assignments.

Best of 9 blitz games
|
If you want to practice a line against me, or just want to
have some fun, then feel free to play some blitz games vs. me. After the
games, I will give you some analysis on what you could improve.

Now, I know you all are going to say why should I take
lessons from you when there are titled players out there who can teach as well.
Well one thing I can say that differentiates me from other coaches is the fact
that I truly spend a lot of time trying to make the lessons extremely enjoyable
and beneficial for each student. I do not try and make the student a clone of
myself. I try to make a great relationship with my students and I have been
known to teach very well. If someone is really good at something, it does not
mean that they can necessarily teach it. I have the skills to teach you to
improve up to my level and I can prepare you to improve beyond my level. I have
taught many students and I am currently teaching 3 others. I have a few spots
open, so if you are interested in being one of my students, then let me know. I
would be happy to help you improve.
I am qualified as a teacher as well: Here are some of my
qualifications:
·
RI state scholastic champion 2012
·
RI state scholastic blitz co-champion 2012
·
Rated 1462 USCF
·
Taught for 3 years, both private and group
lessons. (If you want to schedule a group lesson then feel free to contact me!)
·
I have a 100% satisfaction rate (ask any of my
students, past or present)
·
I am willing to put in the time and effort that
it takes to help you to improve!
