I'm thinking about taking my chess skills to the next level - Page 1

Hi everyone! I'm thinking about taking my chess skills to the next level. Has anyone here actually worked with a grandmaster chess coach before? How does it really help compared to learning on your own?

Hello! Absolutely recommend giving it a try. I started lessons with a grandmaster chess coach last year and noticed the difference right away. The personal attention you get is incredible. Instead of just playing online or watching random videos, the coach analyzes your games, spots patterns in your mistakes, and builds a step-by-step plan just for you. I loved that my coach not only showed me openings and endgames, but also taught me how to think strategically in every position. Plus, getting personalized homework really helped solidify new ideas. My rating went up faster than it ever did before!
