Alex, you are by far my favorite chess instructor, and for so many reasons. The fun and enthusiastic way you explain your thought process, even acknowledging uncertainty, while playing live games really helps people like me to improve. When more players discover you I think your subscriber count will skyrocket! Thanks so much and best of luck with your career in this space.
Every time my opponent mirrors my bishop move i hear alex in my head asking me "what do you do with a bad comedian? This black bishop is the bad comedian... You throw tomatoes at him😅 tomatoes being pawns in this case." The way he explains it is in a way i remember his lessons
Thank you Alex! Reached 1400 rapid today after being stuck in 1300 for a year. Your videos on the caro, london and the slav has really helped me a lot. I tend to get advantages out of all these openings now. Just gotta learn how to not blunder my queen on move 15...
Dude love your content, I was a french player/london player, but now i switched to Dutch/Caro-Jovaba, and your videos helped me a lot, i already have ginger gm courses but really waiting for your caro one...so easy and powerful for my rating...earned like 160 points with like a 13-2-3 socre...I think I already saw all your rating climbs on this openings and waiting for more...hope you have the greatest succes.
One thing that has really helped me lately, when playing white, is when I activate my queen to b3 AFTER pawn goes to c4. You taught this in one of these games, which Magnus plays, and I've got to say, it has really helped to catapult my play to higher levels. Thank you, always!
P.S. ... Thanks as well Alex for always reviewing the Analyses with us and adding comments on your instincts in regards to it. well done Sir! .... O.M.H.

Love your videos bro u have helped me improve my London system tactics and ideas I'm 1300 blitz do u have any tips for middlegame to outperform your opponent's ?
Hey Alex! Thanks for all the content so far, keep it up! ❤ I’m currently 830 rated and started playing the london, I struggle with creating ideas/attacks and usually find myself messing up with the kingside push after I’ve completed theory with Kbd2 or casteling, do you have a video that could help??
It’s fun when you see an international master playing 92% accuracy, and I’m always getting destroyed by 1100’s playing 95% accuracy at the same time control. 🙃
You rock Alex! Thank you for your all wonderful chess content. Are you still accepting chess students? If you are, I sent a message on lichess and would love to hear from you.
