Chess Coach

Hi,

I am trying to gather information about a chess coach. Due to my location it will probably need to be online. The higher rated coach I can find the better. I have moved passed the basics of chess. Currently I am rated 1006 (FIDE), however, ever since I started playing in tournaments (I have only played in 4) it has been in an upward spiral. I think my rating is probably higher. I know that one tournament doesn't determine my rating, but I recently played in one where I beat a 1700 rated player and drew with an 1800 rated player (FIDE). I love positional chess and the endgame (Karpov is my chess hero). I think it would be wise to find a coach that would encourage and nurture my preferred playing style (positional) (I don't think someone like Tal would be a very good fit). What are your thoughts? Right now I am trying to gather information.

Thanks!

 I met someone here. Very cheap 10usd per month. He is very much better than a GM coach. Why? He was 1300 here and become 1900 and 2200 in other websites  very quickly. And he is teaching the very exact chess books and chess regimens that he did.

He is not allowing you to read any good positional chess book until you get to online 1700, Such a brilliant approach.
