➡️ What Additional Benefits do my Students get?

My Students can:

1 - Ask me questions during the week, also including Diagrams, Puzzles, or Games in the questions. I will respond as soon as possible (usually in less than one hour).

2 - Play against me a Daily Game at a time (after that Game finishes we can create more Daily Games).

➡️ How long does it take for a student to get 100 points?

I have seen some of my students improve 100 points on their peak rating after 5 hours of Private Lessons. This is very variable, it depends on so many things, but some of them have got that. This means that by working one hour per week, you could get 100 points in 5 weeks (or faster, or slower 😉).

Patience and team work

I always identify the student's strengths and weaknesses and from there we start a working plan. This plan includes for sure tactics, masters games and endgames and analysis of the student's games.
