Are You An Australian Chess Player Who Wants A 1600+ Rating In The Next 12 Months?

I'm looking for 10 private students who:

- Are passionate about chess;

- Are based in Australia;

- Are rated below 1600 Elo (translates to 1700 Chess.com blitz, or 1800 Chess.com rapid);

- Want to improve your chess as quickly, efficiently, and enjoyably as possible;

Once I reach my limit of 10 students, I won't be accepting any more private students. 

To discover more about how I can help you improve your play and subsequently, raise your chess ratings quickly, send me an email at illingworthchess@gmail.com, or direct message me on Facebook: m.me/max.illingworth.16
