Hey that's wonderful to hear ! And yes, you are right - the lessons do seem to be really helpful. I haven't taken that many lessons. I joined chess.com in 2017 I believe. It's been really amazing so far - so excited to both win and lose haha ; the occasional draws and missed stalemates and the adrenaline from those last second wins - it's been good so far . It's been a fairly good time and thanks for the tip ! I'll definitely look more into the lessons in chess.com. I occasionally play good chess - depends on my mindset at the time. The covid years really dragged down my capabilities in chess because I was in 12th Grade back then and here in India the Grade 12 examination is a big deal along with all the other entrance examinations. Was depressed and definitely not in my element ever since. I'm trying to be as good at chess as I was before. I'm slowly making some progress, and a lot of new strong players around these days, so climbing the rating ladder has never been harder ! I hope you are well and doing fine @FJLawrence
