     You have never played a game that lasted more than 10 minutes. At that speed you play the first move that comes to mind. The key to improvement is learning to analyze positions--seeing strengths and weaknesses, making long-term plans to exploit difficulties your opponent may have, etc. You can study tactics, learn opening principles, study GM games and so on all you want, but until you can put what you learn into practice your progress will be slow. Play longer games and use the time to study the positions in YOUR games before you make your move. You will be surprised at how much more you see. And analyze the games afterward.

get a coach and learn lines

Lines are the least of his worries at 690 rapid.

Tactics, opening principles, basic endgame stuff, basic chess stuff in general... that is what he should do, not learning lines which he will probably not even get to use in a real game against other novice players.

Going up and down is normal in chess. But one thing i can guaranty to you that you will not go down if you analyze your game after loosing and detect where did you make mistake. Because you can play 5000 bullet games and if you do not analyze them you can not expect to improve from that. We all learn from our mistakes. Wise people from others happy.png
