i have reached a block in my skill increase and i think i would benifit more from a personal lesson... or at the least someone to evaluate my strengths and weaknesses so i can see where i need room for improvement. if you could do some lessons with me it would be great!

There's a long list of coaches here - just type "coaches" in the Search field

Also, in St Louis there must be a bunch of local coaches. Ask around.

He wants free lessons.

yeah i know a few at the st louis chess club and schoolastic center but they all charge and i am REALLY tight on money(i want to go to nationals so i need to save 500ish dollars... i just need a break haha

Avatar of SilentKnight1

well thats just it my school dost have enough money to send the team(budget is tight at my school for a while since last year) so thats why im saving to go on my own... plus i am self tought so far and i am better than the chess coach at school(no offence to him hes a cool guy) which is why i need some coaching/lessons

Avatar of SilentKnight1

no other of the guys or girls on the team are going(acept maybe one) but hes unsure if he can afford it

yeah i play better than my rating (belive it or not i am rated 591 in the USCF, but i started heavy study a year after i actually started completing so i sucked for like 8 tournaments next month will be the first one i compete in with my new skill... and library wise no ive checked their is none at the public library and at school there are some but none i can benifit from(books like bobby fischer teach chess) which i read when i first started. so books are out of the question

I don't use them, but I have seen other members post sources.
