Hi guys. I haven't posted on here for a while, but plan to participate more once the Summer comes around :)

I just want to update my lessons information first, and if need be I don't mind my other thread being deleted *wink*

My rate is flexible and up to the student. I do not require any unreasonable fee, I'm just a student looking to earn a buck doing something I enjoy :)

I've gathered a lot of experience teaching up to this point, for details please message or email* to inquire (fuudin@gmail.com)

I am a Canadian 5-Dan, and 5-Dan on KGS (usually!)

I've received nothing but good comments about my teaching, so uh, lemme know if you'd like me to refer you to another student to inquire about me. I believe I can explain exactly how most students need things to be explained, in a very human and sometimes slightly humourous way often using analogies and such. I believe I can vividly remember how it feels to be at many of the Kyu levels, like that time I learned about the magical, unstoppable Monkey Jump, and that other time I learned how to dispel that magic and only lose... like 6 points in Sente give or take!

I would say I specialize in teaching about the opening (opening direction, Joseki choice etc.) and endgame (as well as positional judgement and move-value calculation in general). I'm also good at teaching ways to think about the game as a whole - mindsets with which to win, how to overcome classic Kyu player mental blocks, rules of thumb that actually work in most situations, the true fundamentals of how to think about life and death problems (the simple secret to solving most of them!) etc.

My current KGS account is LacusClyne. Who knows what my next one will be :)
-Thanks!

...and don't search up the KGS user Alakazam. That is not me. It was me a long time ago.

Here is...My Go analytics! http://kgs.gosquares.net/index.rhtml.en ... sclyne&r=1

I'll do my best to keep my KGS handle listed ( <-- on the side/my profile) updated, so don't bother checking anything else. I've had many, many KGS accounts in the past...

Thanks
