(Free chess coaching)

Hi everyone!

I have currently reached my highest chess rating ever, 2116. And I feel as if I can achieve much higher than this with training. I have compared my blitz rating with a lot of NM players (and other master players) and many of them seem to have around the same rating as me. I am not saying that I am necessarily as good as them but it definitely says something about my playing abilities. 

So, I would want to coach players that want to develop their chess! Both for their sake and mine since this will help to improve my chess as well. I

So if you want coaching via skype or messenger let me know! I can observe while you play games here on chess.com and give you feedback during your play and also give you advice on many other things, (openings and tactics etc.)

 

Kind regards,

Paul Jacobson

Hi Paul, I have a 2004 Blitz rating so therefore I conclude I might not be at the level of NMs, but I'm going to mention them, because it definitely says something about my play. I'm wondering if there is room for some friendly COMPETITION ?

Well, from what I can see you have only played 4 games of blitz, so I don't know if you really can take credit for that. But your bullet rating is certainly great!
I sent you a DM to continue the discussion there.

To be a good player and to be a good coach — it is not the same at all!
First coach is very important thing, so it is can't mediocre.

I am sorry, but you rating is very poor to be a coach. You can teach kids for the basics, but not more.
Yesterday I had my first training with real NM, he didn't GM title only because of losing one game instead of draw (His stable rating is 2400+) in last tournament. Also I have trained in school (3 hour per week and I must admin this it wasn't real chess training, just for fun with elements of theory etc…) for a few years, so I know what I am talking about.

But it is only a recommendation. Fill free to be a coach for beginners, but I highly recommend to read some chess learing process fundamentals. For example, do not try to learn opening from the start, start to learn endgame instead.

I have reached 1800+ a lot of times, my highest rating is 1897, it is not very hard to beat 1900+ player (but loose 1500+ also:-))
It is ok for me to have 1790+ in the morning and 1650 in the evening like yesterday.

But in any case it is only warning, you have to understood that it is not only fun, it is also an onus.
