Hello!  thank you!

Very nice lessons for beginners.

He means that you spelled it wrong. It is Lopez, not Lopes. 

A 1500 giving lessons?? I'm almost 1800 OTB (which = 2000 on this site) 

And I feel very wrong coaching someone at my level.

 ShipDriver_Hand,

He is sharing what he knows. If you find mistakes, you can point them out. Why discourage someone? And you don't have to assume anything about rating on chess.com. You can easily find out your rating by playing a few games.

Understandable. The problem I have with these posts are the useless nature of them. And huge overuse of chess boards. alot of this can be easily told with one board, instead of 20. And the content is very much lacking. All the OP says is:

You can play this, but this, yet this!

Nothing being taught. A beginner could get a chess board out and experiment with their opening and get more out of this post. 

I am too harsh though, I can't be mad at one who helps others.

I agree, he could have used fewer boards.

The correlation between OTB rating and online rating is not that strong. Even after I recently threw away an enormous amount of points at my last tournament, my USCF is about equal to most of my ratings on here. Meanwhile a friend of mine is about 1900 OTB and occasionally 1600 blitz on here, on a good day.

Also, you don't have chess.com ratings lol, so not sure how you are saying that

yo ankit, you are getting unimaginably bad coaching. Let me handle this for you.

send me a personal message if you want a taste of real coaching, and not some fool informing you on how to move pieces to squares.

Real coaching from some clown who just joined 5 days ago, have not played a game and has the laughable 1300 tactic rating? Yeah, you are super legit! 

um, i have no membership and have solved every one of my puzzles. i can't do better than that.

edit all but one. and it doesn't matter. I hit 2176 as my peak in 1981, a decade before uscf threw all those ratings away. I may be only 6 days old on this site but I've been at it for over 40 years. I'm only 1800 because i am not the player i used to be. i'm gonna get my nm title one day, and we'll see who's the joke.

 All I'll say is that its not always your skill that factors into teaching ability but you're ability to communicate  knowledge to someone. There are a lot of masters who make terrible teachers at chess.

To be a good teacher you have to know what your student knows, and add to that knowledge

it's very easy! 

Exactly, i don't think this dude respects your talents. but he's 14 years old. i have to give him a break of some kind

listen slobodan, you are 14 years old with a rating of 1200. do not try to teach anyone. I have been over 2100 and I feel inadequate to teach, as I have never gotten a master title. you have barely reached the rank of patzer.

Easily.

The correct answer can be found by examining the forcing moves. Forcing moves are moves that result in a check, a capture, or a threat.  

I think that adding text contributing to the given puzzles solution in some way increases the probability of the student to learn something. This opinion is based on the fact that there are different types of learners. 

I'm just saying that I agree with the other posts that say that just posting boards isn't a very adequate teaching method and I also just tried to illustrate my point. I am in no way trying to teach.
