Our private lessons are offered in combinations of teaching games, game reviews, Go problem homework, and general lectures. In the first lesson, the instructor will ask the student general questions to grasp the student‘s current strengths and weaknesses. Then, a study plan will be designed for the student.

For the best results, students are strongly encouraged to practice between each session. Instructors assign homework weekly, which include a combination of solving Go problems, playing games, doing textbook questions, self-game reviewing, and studying professional games. The Divine Move of Go textbooks at NYIG provide a systematic instruction series of 14 books from beginner to 5d. Purchasing a textbook is strongly recommended for complete coverage of the core concepts.

Scheduling is flexible on a weekly or biweekly frequency. A live recording of each online lesson is available upon request. If you have any questions, please send an email to info@ny-go.org with "Private Lesson" in the title.
