Looking for 'pupils'

Okay great, I appreciate the interest... I've started work on making a small porfolio of GM games to study that will help intuition and build an appreciation for why GM's play the way they do as opposed to the way us amateurs tend to play.
That should be a good start.
On this site is my rating is 1100 but in real life i play in interclubs rating 1300+,
can i have some advice also?
I can't take any new pupils at the moment... I'm swamped :P
If everything works out well I may take a few more on once the ones I have are finished with me...

it sounds like its going well!

Yeah it is... lots of interest anyways.. hard to say there's any progress yet though.. I've only made a few moves!
Well thanks, I hope it works...
it seems to be already though... one of my 'pupils' has already finished his game, read my annotations and tips, played a slightly stronger opponent, and gave him a great game (lost, but improved greatly).
It's working!! A great feeling... teaching without the risk of being shot :P.
After being fortunate enough to play several games on this site with some incredible players, I felt I should pay it forward by helping some lower rated players who may view MY rating as incredible :P
If anyone is somewhere between 1300 and 1500 and looking to improve their game seriously, I'd love to help a little...
I'm only an 1800 player at the moment (maybe a little underrated but not much).
If you are looking for a little training though send me a PM or something and I'll give ya a few games...
And who knows, maybe it'll pay off in a few years if I actually get good at coaching!
