Looking for Serious, Long-Term Study Partner

Post by logan »

Hi, I'm looking for a serious, long-term (six months+) study partner. My schedule is 5-problems a week from Xuanxuan Qijing (Gengen Gokyo) and one game study from Honinbou Shuei every 2-weeks. (If you would like to choose one another old master, then we can alternate each game.) As may be clear from the schedule it is not intended as a replacement for an intense personal study program or to interfere with the normal priorities of a life.

We will meet once every two weeks to go over the problems and game study. The purpose of the meeting is to share our findings, insights and pleasure, therefore the problems and personal review of the games should be completed beforehand. I'm a mid-high dan player so am looking for others of a similar level of skill. Please sent me a personal message if you're interested.

Thank-you,
logan

I'm not strong enough to keep up with you, but this seems like a cool study idea.

Thank-you. Maybe you can find another friend on here to study with, perhaps beginning with the Gokyo Shumyo instead of Xuanxuan Qijing : )

FYI, Guo Juan 5p said studying Shuei's games (and that means trying to find mistakes in them) was one of the main things which made her stronger.
