I'm looking for a chess coach. I'm currently rated 1200 (provisional) and my primary goal is to work towards becoming the South Carolina State Champion.

I know that may sound like a lofty goal, but you have to start somewhere. Anyway, I'm a talented web developer and I'm hoping to be able to do some trade and barter for chess lessons. I'm also willing to pay...perhaps a mixture of the two (pay & trade services).

If any of this sounds interesting, please let me know - or if you know of someone that I should contact, that would be helpful, too.

Thanks!

I recommend that you take a look in our coach directory at http://www.chess.com/coaches as you may find someone who fits your need there.
