Hello everyone!  Have you ever wanted the chance to study under a GM – at a reasonable price?

My teacher GM Viktor Gavrikov has just set up a new username on this account - Gavrikov.  He is already a registered teacher on ICC and playchess.com.
Let me ask you a couple of questions –  

Have you ever played a game and wondered, “How did I lose that one?”  You made what appeared to be all the right moves, but suddenly you couldn’t figure out why your position was falling apart.  

GM Viktor Gavrikov can help you understand the importance of positional chess – piece placement, pawn structures, control of the center, etc. – and help you improve your games. 

Have you ever been in the middle of an important tournament game and suddenly found yourself in a position that you couldn’t figure out?  You finally made a move, but it turned out bad, and your game fell apart. 

GM Viktor Gavrikov can help you improve your understanding of critical positions - you will be able to dissect unclear positions more accurately, find stronger moves, and win more games! 
These classes are not just for the chess player who has been in tournaments for years – they are also for beginners!  If you are just learning the moves to chess, but you would like to be the best on your block, or even one day the best in the club, with the right training, you can be on your way.  Viktor can start with the basics, and help you understand the moves, so that you can be able to defeat your dad, your friend or your roommate – finally! 

 

The reason I am promoting his classes is that he is an excellent teacher.  If you have any questions about his classes for me, feel free to e-mail me.  If you want to speak to him, his username is Gavrikov.  He also has a website - www.viktorgavrikov.net - that you can view for more information.
Thanks, and we look forward to see your ratings improve!

Hey guys, here is another plus to live training...you cannot interact with a book.  Have you ever wanted to devise a new line that your opponent won't know?  Who better to work with than a world-class GM?  Viktor has trained world-champion level players.  He has defeated Karpov!  He is definetely what you need if you want to pull out a new surprise at the next state tournament.  I have went over my own personal games with him in the Petroff and Bird's Openings, and he has shown me where I have went wrong, and what I could do to improve.  We have went over lines in the Leningrad Dutch and he has shown me lines that were specialties at top levels.  These ideas are rare to come across, and they can be very effective, as you will have a greater grasp of the position than your opponent, seeing that you will be well versed in the tactical and positional possibilities that the position offers.  If your opponent chooses one branch of lines, you will already know the best response, and your opponent will be shocked. 

I know, you could gain this from books too, but the ability to interact with a world-class player is not to be underestimated.  Even if you could not afford classes regularly, from time to time, maybe one a month - the benefits will be evident. 

If you have any interest at all, please don't hesitate to ask.  It won't take much of your time, and you will be pleased with the end results.

I have decided to post a game of Viktor's to show off a bit of his talent.  I see a lot of people are curious about the idea of studying actively, but not many people want to pursue this wonderful, yet important aspect of improving at chess - study with a grandmaster.  Here is a game where he defeated Belyavsky in a Gruenfeld with the Black pieces.
