If for coaches out there, my main problems are lack of opening theory knowledge, which I’ve survived without, but feel I need to work on in order to push further. I don’t really have a fixed repertoire and play all sorts of different openings. I also need to work on time management and making good practical choices, in which my blitz and bullet play probably isn’t helping…

imo my tactics are decent enough for the time being and I can spot most well enough, and my positional sense is okay, but that’s not up to me to judge. Longer time controls will probably do me some good too as I‘ve played very minimal amounts of games longer than 10|0 other than in tournaments. If anyone would like to be a training partner around my level with me and play some longer time controls that would be great too.

I've found that Chessable's method of teaching opening theory is ideal. It uses a science based approach to training a repertoire into your long term memory. You just have to decide which repertoires you want to learn. It does cost a little money to buy the repertoires, but it would be much cheaper than a coach.  It does take time, but since you are young, it won't take you as long as it will me. Good luck.

Hi! I've been training students specially young players who want to learn and grow since 5+ years now and they have achieved great success so far. If you're interested, do consider DM and we can take it from there.
