KGS Tutors

  Difficulty: Beginner   Keywords: Online Go

KGS is great for learning how to play. But what if you're a beginner who can't afford (or isn't far enough along yet for) paid lessons?

Fortunately, there are a number of people who play regularly on KGS who are willing to help new players out for free. We're not all shodans, but we've got a few tips we can offer (after you've read all of the Beginner Study Section of course).

If you're willing to help new players (like people helped you when you were new), list your name here so beginners can find us, and we'll keep the cycle going.
