I'd be interested in doing some informal mentoring if some are willing to hear out what I have to say.  USCF 1907 Chess.com 2287, On the other hand, learning from others seems to be good as well. I do have a question though, which is, how are the students and mentors going to be able to know when the other is on and how are things going to be examined (meaning is this going to be something where you send your mentor a game in a pgn file and let him/her send you the annotated file back, or is this just going to be mentors giving references to web pages,or private videos on youtube,  or is it going to be getting on a chess server and examining a game)?


 I agree with the above, I would like to join this, but how will the mentoring be done?

Great idea!

I would like to join, I'm 2073  (but I don't feel good enough to coach someone above 1600).

This sounds great!  I'd like to join, my current rating is 1334 on chess.com, but my highest was in the 1600's before I took a break from this site and forfeited a bunch of tournament games.

I will join, but I warn you I do not know how effectively I will be able to teach if I am chosen to be the mentor. My rating right now is 1607, but in reality it is more in the 1500s.

I would love to join.  At the moment I believe my rating is accurate.  I've played enough correspondence games here to know what my weaknesses are.  Please, help would be appreciated.

My rating is: 1197
