 1: IM Dan Vasiesiu, Neurologist, married, 2 kids, probably the most optimistic
  person you've met.
 2: Teaching chess over the internet for more than 10 years with excellent
  results.
 3: My lessons are one on one, customized to meet the student's needs. I can
  help anyone rated from 1000 to 2200.
 4: If you are interested in taking lessons from me, please send an email to
  lazypawn@gmail.com. Mention your ICC nickname, age, chess books and software
  you own, goals for the future, desired lesson times.
 5: I prefer 2 hour lessons (50 chekels). A one hour lesson (not so effective)
  would be 30 chekels. Please refer to help chekels.
 6: Alternatively you can pay $450 in advance for 10 lessons of 2 hours each
  (thus you get a discount). Refer to help more-chekels.
 7: Vendors advertising serious improvement after 2-3 lessons or 5 blitz games
  should be sentenced to death :-) The truth is that it takes months or even
  years to become a better chess player. Long term commitment and hard work are
  crucial.
 8: STATISTICS: January 2000 - December 2009 (10 years): 5674 lessons on ICC
  (96% of them 2 hour sessions); 138 students.
 9: Average rating increase after 20 lessons (that's a minimum to show a real
  objective improvement) - 173 rating points (ICC standard rating). U1500
  gained on average 255, 1500-1800 192, 1800-2200 around 112 (but close to 200
  after 50 lessons).
