Fake Coach
· He will never play with you fearing of beaten by you and say lame reasons that i don't have time to play with you
· He may analyze your games but that analysis is only a superficial one like he may say "because of this move you lost" and those simple comments doesn't provide any value addition to your game.
· Simply he doesn't have time for it. He is more worried about his timing to coach his next student during your lessons/games
· He may give you a 1000 exercises to work on and those tasks are so huge you can never complete
· He can't give any training plan. Fake coach will have only timing plan to fit all his 100 students with in his timings so as earn more money.
· Without a training plan and proper analysis of your games, lessons also will be like shooting in air without any real targets
· May give you a book or software to practice on but it may not be enough. You may not understand how those exercises will improve your performance in the tournament. At the outset you will recognize that your performance/non-performance is not the result of his coaching
· May not check your homework as he may not have time to do so. or check only superficially without any real recommendations
· He may show anger on you or give unrealistic answer which you may not understand
· 90% of coaches doesn't know how to use chess programmes properly for training. They simply doesn't know what to collect and what to teach
· May a give you a repertoire book with 300pages to learn from
· He may not asks you to play with other good players as they can beat you or he may fear you will have better contacts and desert him. Even during the tournament time they accompany you and prevent you from talking with other players and coaches
· Technicalities huh! Nonsense!!! What are they???
· Where is the time for him to know about your psychology? He has 100 students…LOL!!!
· He is least bothered about your concentration. His concentration is only to finish your class somehow and catch up the next student
· When He Doesn't Have Time To Observe His Own Students We May Forget About The Age Group Opponents
· He May Pretend To Have Such Knowledge But Practically Impossible When He Is Teaching Even 10 Students
· He will never assess your strength before participating in tournaments. He always pushes you to play tournaments.
· He will never do that or do that only with his superficial understanding of the game which is not useful in the game anyway
· For most of the coaches coaching is a profession. So they will take any number of students for money.
