He was my coach for 1.5 years. During that time we worked on openings, midlegames and endgames. All at a very high level. He is an experienced, supportive and successful coach. He also has a great sense of humour.
I also achieved success when he coached. I beat some FMs and several players over 2000 in long games. 
I can confidently recommend him to all chess loving people.

Dear Andras, Thank you so much for your kind words. Beating titled players in over the board games is such a great achievement, I'm very proud of you. That happens when you keep practicing. happy.png

I've learned so much from Gabor over a small period of time.

Because of this, I'm able to do a much better job figuring out positions and analysis than I hadn't before taking lessons with him. Explanations were always crystal clear and he genuinely has a passion for chess.

Just as importantly, he's an awesome guy.

I recommended him to a friend and would recommend him to anyone who needs to improve their chess knowledge.

About a year ago for no particular reason I decided that I wanted to play chess. I started by playing and doing puzzles for fun and eventually after realizing that I wasn't improving much I decided that I wanted to get coach. Gabor was referred to me by a family friend and I have never looked back once. Gabor is a phenomenal coach and I love learning from him. Even though I hardly play chess on my own anymore, with the 2 chess lessons I get from Gabor a week I still feel like I am improving a lot (all though I really should be playing more games on my own). The number one quality I look for in a teacher is the ability to keep their students engaged and Gabor does this easily. He's funny and has always managed to keep me interested in chess.

tl;dr Gabor has taught me a lot about chess and his lessons are something I always look forward to!

Update: I'm 1336 now and rising. We started less than 3 years ago when my rating was around 600. I don't take chess very seriously and I was still able to improve so much almost purely through Gabor's lessons. GOAT'bor is the best.

I have had the pleasure of having 4 sessions with Gábor. This was the first time I worked with a coach and I have to say that my experience was wonderful. I am a casual player with no (immediate) interest in competing but want to get better.

He had prepared certain topics/exercises for each session and was always able to discuss the topics I wanted to ask about or review my games.

The exercises we went through were very instructive and appropriate for my level - far from being easy and yet not that hard that I was unable to understand what was going on.

I look forward to working with him again in the near future - so if you are considering having him as a coach, my recommendation to you is to go for it.

Dear Matias, Yes, I wish you were more hard-working... grin.png It's incredible that even without practicing alone, you keep rising that much. As I see, you are almost 1400 now. You can do it! wink.png
