So, that's me. at least, 4 weeks ago. you might be wondering, Jeffrey, how did your rating-. yes, my rating is 1800. compare that to my previous rating.
today, I am going to tell you a few tips how to get your rating up, no matter what level you are.
First things first. DO PUZZLES;
yes, I may seem bossy, but that's a very effective way to prepare for your games. puzzles help build your tactics, so in a game, you can easily defeat your opponent with a tactic. during games, they probably will mess up. just make sure you don't!
what I mean by play games are 10+0, and above. bullet & blitz, just for fun. rapid and classical, better focus, but a little too long.
take time. don't get mad you lost like 5 games in a row, just take a breather and start again. my losing steak is 3 games, but it was frustrating. keep playing, and you will find yourself unbeaten for a while, but don't relax, keep fighting.
Lastly, Analyze your games with a coach:
Analyzing your losses are helpful, as you now know what to do in the position than last time. if you don't analyze, it will lead to more mistakes. analyzing helps improve your strategy, and way of playing, If you use engine all the time, you will rely on engine too much and forget about YOUR playing style. You can use engine after analyzing your game with a coach or fellow friend around your rating.
