I know some time has passed, but I felt it was time for an update. Experience has help him. He's not making (too many ;)) rash errors any more and his game has improved considerably. He's almost 9k on KGS now and yesterday he managed to beat me at 6 stones (his first win against me) :D. He's started doing life and death now because he sees that it is needed in more than just games with stronger opponents. Now we just need to build up the REST of the Go Club at school and we'll be cool.
