Hi Yelena

 I'm a mid 1500 player -so not too great - I know the basics of positional play and strategy but seem to have hit a wall in improving my game! I play club level in SA. I don't know how these things work but could seriously use some help. Would you be willing to help me improve?

Many thanks

Hi everyone!

For all interested to study here is the info:

I give private lessons on ICC, Playchess or WCL. These are special chess servers where we both examine a board, both can move.

I look for my student's mistakes and improve what is possible, I show the best openings, of course middlegame and endgame ( I wrote 2 books on it - you can see more info about it on my website - www.yelenadembo.com) and strategy with tactics. Basically all chess!

I charge US$ 30 for 1h.

Best wishes,

Yelena

  I'm 12 and I don't have much money so could you just write online teachings. I'm about 1400 so I'm poor at this game but I desperately need help.

Poor people without money needing help... I might check out that program of yours eventually, I'm sure an hour of time could be very worthwhile. It is an extremely good opportunity to improve my game, thanks for posting that link. Great job being such a good chess player so young!

Hi for everyone interesting in learning chess!

I charge US$35 for 1h and the lessons are private. I give private lessons on ICC and Playchess. I look for my student's mistakes and improve what is possible, I show the best openings, of course middlegame and endgame ( I wrote 2 books on it - you can see more info about it on my website - www.yelenadembo.com) and strategy with tactics. I give very good and useful homeworks, depending on what we saw during the lesson. Basically all chess!

Leave me a message if you are interested.

kkaytee, can't you afford R210 for a professional lesson? Then I would suggest you read free online tutorials. To ask for a free lesson from someone that has to put effort in to it is a bit audacius.
