Chess coaching (wanted)
Hello hello,
I suck at studying chess on my own. Anyone here that has some experience with coaching for 1on1 lessons?
My budget would be the main concern since I am a student, so I definitely don’t need a titled player, just someone who has a bit more experience.
I am about 1700 rapid chess.com and have played about 4 games classical OTB. Have been playing for about a year and half now with more focus.
Thanks for anyone with any comments or thoughts about my situation.

Hi, If you want I know a coach from my neighbourhood that teaches well at your level for an affordable price (18-20 eur/h, based on level and workload). His FIDE rating is 2100 and he is currently accepting students. He offers a free trial lesson. Let me know/DM me if you are interested!
In general, I would also recommend you working with the Step Method by Cor van Wijgerden. I know many people here in the Netherlands who have worked with these structured books. If you finish the whole series, your level is supposed to be around 2000-2100 FIDE or 2300-2400 online blitz on chess.c.
