I also ask that if a student has time and is looking for opponents, I can help you find other students to play. I make no promises about fantastic improvement in a short amount of time. Many good chessplayers are instructors, but being a good chessplayer does not necessarily make you a good chess instructor . I love teaching, and chess is now my full-time job.
