Since September 26, 2011, Nick has been teaching a Monday evening "double digit kyu" class, aimed at players roughly 20k to 5k in strength. He records the lectures and posts them on his YouTube channel:

With 350 videos and counting, this brings more visibility to our game, and provides a helpful, accessible resource when people search for "Game of Go". In the past year, three or four times I've heard visitors to the Go Center say that Nick's channel helped them develop interest in Go, or helped them find out about the Go Center.

So congratulations Nick! You've earned that award. Enjoy your complementary stay at the Go Congress, and thanks for all your hard work teaching!

Nick's DDK class is on summer break. Drew is filling in with a Go Basics class, intended for players about 25k to 10k, on the same Monday 6:30-8:30 PM schedule. Tomorrow's topic: Basic Shapes

I saw Drew talk about basic shapes last summer, and (even at a nominal strength of 5k) I found it very helpful. Enthusiastically recommended!

See you soon at the Go Center,

P.S. - What's the real reason Hamlet was so concerned about life and death?

(Hamlet thought 2B was a reasonable opening move.)
