  Chessbase 18 coaching
Posted by: amuir - 11-03-2025, 07:18 AM - Forum: General Chess Chat - Replies (1)

I have bought this, got the manual, watched videos but I am still not getting the best out of it. I am looking for a chess coach to improve my skills. My grading is down badly this year and I wish to stop further decline.
