He says.....


Dear all

Some members have asked if I plan to do some coaching sessions again
this year and of course I am:
1 flattered to be asked,
2 happy to do it,
3 hopeful of receiving your suggestions, and
4 grateful for any offers of support.

You all know the starting point by now:

List three things about playing chess that you are good at (or like
doing):
1
2
3

List three things about playing chess that you are not so good at and
want to improve:
1
2
3

As this is the third time I think I've tried to kick us off in this way,
you may well want to:
a. reflect on people's responses from 2007 and 2008
http://www.exeterchessclub.org.uk/General/chesblog.html#14thMay2008
http://www.exeterchessclub.org.uk/General/oldblog.html#13thJuly2008

b. ask yourself: are these the same things I wrote down last year?

c. ask yourself: have I seen any improvement in the things I wrote down
last year? and if not, why not?

But mostly, please, tell me what you want to work on this summer and
I'll construct a programme to suit.

cheers
