That's good! Thank you for organizing this surprise training, because she did the homework you assigned, and I must have left it to do other things. I am urging Abi to keep up with the progress and keep up this month.

Teacher Dong’s class is very good and the teaching materials are very good. The experience of learning chess shared by Teacher Dong is even better! For my average kid, I feel that the practice is still not enough, and the progress is too slow! I personally like the free pre-match training camp! (There is a sense of atmosphere, although we haven’t finished it yet) I don’t know if Mr. Dong still has time to give out some training materials to children in different stages (such as uscf500, uscf1000, uscf1200) every day (knowing that the requirements are too high) or we can come together Brush up on the puzzle book group (the book is responsible for the purpose of creating a sense of atmosphere together) that one puzzle every day is really impossible to use (maybe I don’t know how to use it) I’ve said too much, thank you

Mr. Dong's step class is highly recommended. We have only taken step 4 and 5, but we think it is very helpful. I hope to have the opportunity to organize the study of step6.

Teacher Dong, I would like to thank you for recommending the elephant book. Our kid loves to do it very much. She didn’t finish the surprise training last time, but she actually re-done 1a by herself during the summer vacation, and now she is doing 1b. I was quite pleasantly surprised, indicating that these two books are indeed step-by-step, and children can accept them

My approach

Forming a plan

Our vision towards life

Have a clear idea of where you want to be both in the near and distant future. You need to identify the deep sources of your happiness and clearly distinguish the means from the goals.

Review your life plan

Self-development is not a static thing, but a dynamic process. Life is changing and you will also see huge changes in yourself through your self-development process. 

Explore yourself

You have a unique purpose in life and a unique set of strengths and abilities. Life direction coaching is a process for exploring who you are and what you need in a way that’s supportive and guided. 

Re-evaluation

It’s not just about finding a new career direction or a hobby to take up. It’s about finding a way of being that suits the person you want to be, but also the person you need to be. Sometimes this means re-evaluating your career path.
Do not hesitate

Kick off your journey!
