Michael Xu

In June 2024, Michael advanced to the semifinals of the NAGF Pro Qualification Tournament, showcasing his impressive skills and dedication

I first met Michael at the 2019 CGA Summer Camp, and we began lessons later that year. At the time, he was just 6 years old and ranked 10-kyu.

We’ve consistently had 1-2 lessons per week since then. When we reconnected in August this year at CGA Summer Camp, he had grown into a confident 11-year-old and had achieved a CGA 5-dan rank.

Chris Xu

Chris, Michael's one-year younger brother started lessons with me in the spring of 2021, when he was around 13-kyu. Now, in 2024, Chris has also shown great progress and reached CGA 2-dan.

Andy Zhou

In September 2024, Andy achieved outstanding results at the CA U16 Go Championship, securing 1st place among the boys and girls. 

I’ve been working with Andy since March 2022. When we first started, he was a 1-dan, and it's been amazing to watch him level up and achieve such great results.

Angel Zhou

Angel, Andy's younger sister by one year, took 2nd place at the CA U16 Championship and was the top performer among the girls.

In 2023, she secured 2nd place in the 6th AGA Girls Cup, and in 2024, she placed 3rd in the 7th AGA Girls Cup.

She also finished 2nd at the 2024 USGC Pair Go Championship.

Two years ago, she was a 3-kyu, but now she’s reached 3-dan!

Edward Zhang

I started teaching Edward in the spring of 2021. He was already a strong player, ranked 6~7dan on Tygem(弈城), but there were still a few areas where he needed advice. After working hard with a tailored training plan, Edward improved to 8~9dan on Tygem, and began seeing better results in competitions.
