Orlov Intermediate Friday (Zoom)

Friday Intermediate Classes (Video Conference)

A weekly online class via Zoom on Fridays by IM Georgi Orlov.

This class is designed for Intermediate level players and is very helpful for tournament players. Is this class for you? Click to read about how to choose classes.

We teach powerful chess tools to get ahead in the game:

• Strategy lessons and cool openings
• Tactics
• Homework

Below is the meeting invitation for Friday’s remote chess lessons. To join the meeting, click on the link below following the “Join Zoom Meeting”. You can connect by laptop, tablet, or smartphone. Please use a webcam setup so I can see the students. You’ll probably want to arrive a few minutes early and test your microphone and camera.

Kindly remind students to hold questions and comments during my lesson until I open the floor for discussion. Allow one student to finish their thoughts before jumping in. This will reduce interruptions and maintain the integrity of the chess session.

It is good practice to mute your microphone until you talk to reduce background noise. Press the space bar to talk and release to re-mute when your conversation is finished. Think of it as a “push to talk” button.

Parents, we appreciate your help getting your student successfully connected with this technology in our online lessons. We request that no extras (relatives, observers, or remote computers) participate in the session.

We use Chess.com with our Intermediate classes. We encourage students to create a free account to practice their chess and play games as much as they like! Plus, join our Orlov Chess Academy club to reach our members and participate in friendly online club tournaments. For full unlimited access to the whole site with all of its bells and whistles, consider upgrading your membership.

Thanks, Coach Orlov
