Give Chess Lesson

Hello everybody, I've been informed that my fide ELO is 1900, and I teach for the players between 1000 to 1600, 5 Hour €, 20 € Month

The reason my ELO on chess.com be low is because I do not play here at this site, if necessary, I show that I have fide 1900 with proof

€ 5 an hour, we played a game of 15 minutes, the game looked, I say where are the strategic mistakes, and help improve his positional play, and we see a match yours.

€ 20 Month - I provide study materials, books, DVDs, etc., and follow the progress little by little during the week if necessary we can analyze some games

SKYPE And Chessbase.

Language it's English, Spanish or Portuguese

Your stats aren't impressive. Over 130 blitz games, about evenly split with the highest win from someone in the 1500's. About 16 standard games with 10 losses, and the highest win from someone in the 1400's.

Sunshiny, i don't play at this site, but if u wan't , add me on ChessCube pls "Sunbagger",  I just play here when i start to play, after this my friends play on my account, but, if anyone want do a match to prove that i do, no problem... Tks for the Reply

Sunshiny, lolitos is right, ratings don't mean sh*t on here.  Players lose on the clock here unlike over the board.  Players experiment with openings on here before using them over the board.  Etc Etc.  Myself included.

I'm 2102 USCF, 2064 FIDE, but yet only 1700s on here for Blitz, and Correspondence I've only played 2 games so far, both of them wins.

So don't trust any rating numbers you see on here.  They are utter BS.

There are only a few threads where you don't mention your otb ratings.

"... my friends play on my account"

How do we know one of your friends didn't start this thread? 

Yes, but if someone were to look for a coach here, what would they have to look for as credentials?

Edit: Sure, he says he's 1900, but the problem is i'm fairly certain i've seen some fake numbers around here. Games can be faked too, but those are more likely to be caught.

I'd also like to point out that sharing your account with friends is a no-no. 

Sunshiny, if someone is trying to advertise chess lessons, instead of using their profile here, if you want verification of what they claim, simply ask them for the FIDE ID, or USCF ID, and you can look it up on the FIDE or USCF Website (or some other organization's site if that is the case).  The USCF site also has a link in each player's profile to their FIDE rating if they have one.

If you are unfamilar with the sites, here's how you do it:

USCF Name or ID Provided:  Go to www.uschess.org, click on "USCF" on the left, not USCF Sales on the right, left menu, click "Players and Ratings", under there, a menu shows, choose "Player/Rating Lookup", take the provided name or ID number (You can use mine as an example, 12663277 - ID Numbers are public information, not like Social Security Numbers), click on the name when the search results come, and you will see their USCF Supplement rating for the current month (Mine is 2081 - to see the latest rating, you'd have to click on the "Tnmt. Hst" tab).  On the General Tab is also their FIDE ID, and a link to their latest FIDE rating.

FIDE ID Provided:  Go to www.fide.com.  Hover over "Ratings", and select all players.  Enter the ID or Name (In my case, that would be 2021714, as also seen on the USCF site)

So if lolitos doesn't want to give out his info publically on the forum, you can ask him in a private message for his FIDE ID number, and look it up, to determine his strength, rather than basing it on his rating here.  FIDE ratings are definitely far more legit than bogus blitz ratings on chess.com.

Yes, it means a little more asking around for info rather than deciding who your coach is in 5 seconds, but the research is worth it.  You could have someone that has a great connection and knows how to pull quick traps in 5-minute chess, but doesn't understand chess strategy worth a hoot, and they might be 2300 on here, and 1100 over the board.  Would you rather a coach like this?  So either way, I'd suggest researching the person before paying any sort of money on here to coach you.

How do we know he is who he claims to be? There are others here that are site verified, but something like this would fall under the radar.

I looked at his profile, but only the stats were available. I would've liked to have seen performance too, but he didn't have any games listed. It would be hard for someone looking for a coach to consider this person with the lack of information.

@JamieKowalski -Good points. One of his friends could be pulling a joke on him and on those looking for a coach.

Sunshiny - There are ways to determine this.  Yeah, I could just pick out a name in the USCF rating list and claim to be him.  Like I could tell you that I was Cyrus Lakdawala from California.

There are 3 ways around this:

1 - If you are getting your lessons via the phone, you should know his number.  If he gives you a 201 number (A New Jersey Area Code) and claims he Lakdawala (A Californian), you've already nailed a clear liar.

2 - You could say that you specifically want somebody that lives in the such-and-such area and that you want to meet in person.

3 - You could tell the player that you have interest in a coach, and would highly consider using him or her if that player got themselves verified.

I'm sure there are other processes available as well, just those were the 3 I thought of off the top of my head.

In addition, I would be very hessitant to try to claim I was another player in order to advertise if I ever had any intention of coaching.  The reason is, let's say I advertised that I was Cyrus Lakdawala.  The moment that someone got a lesson from me, and clearly could tell I was not him (i.e. Physical features about me if we did skype or in person, extreme differences in playing style that are obvious, talking to me on the phone and then meeting him in person and realizing that my voice isn't even remotely close to his, etc), they could sue me for both False Advertising to them and Identity Theft to the real Cyrus Lakdawala.

So it's pretty hard to get duped and not notice it the very first time, so even if you did get duped, it wouldn't be for much money. 

It's already evident that Lolitos has no problem with the idea of impersonation, considering he lets others log in under his account. 

Please, don't tell me you took him seriously !?

i say all u want know on private message, ID Fide, anything, just ask me... 

@ThrillerFan -A person choosing a name from someone living in the same area would be harder to nail. Anyway, people get duped all the time. It's good that you've listed some ways people should check.

I am an International Grand Master and you can verify this by looking at my profile picture. Sure, I've been dead for a couple decades, but I compensate by using the low price of $50 per hour. Please contact me for further details.
