I know that there is a section for coaching testimonies but I feel yang definitely deserves more attention on his coaching ability so I decided to start a thread on spreading the for Coach yang

Going into my first ever sc2 coaching lesson with Mark aka yang, I didn’t really know what to expect but I definitely came out of it feeling confident that I have a better understanding on my weak match ups( PvZ and PvP). Mark is such an easy going guy with tremendous patience; I think I asked over few hundred questions over our 2 hour session on PvZ and PvP. He was able to answer all my questions with ease; honestly to those that are thinking of taking up coaching lessons from Mark which I recommend, he is like an open book of toss secrets and strategies, so ask away and all secrets shall be revealed.

The lessons covered a lot of replay analysis of my losses and making sure that I understood the reasons that I lost and how I can do better to avoid them and practice matches as well. He helped lay the foundation of knowledge for those match ups so I can utilize that knowledge to better my decision making skills during the match ( ie – what to do if a Zerg does a fast 3 hatch, when to cannon up for a roach ling all in, the signs of a 4 gate or when to expand in PvP). I definitely feel that even though the lessons were filled with tons of new information, it was explained in such a way that it was very easy to understand and to be utilized later when laddering. This is evident in such that when I went to Mark I was only playing at a high level but now I am a Rank 1 Protoss playing against high diamonds and awaiting my promotion to in probably a week or so.

The last thing I like to mention is how lenient he is with the lesson timings, even when the lesson has gone way past the hour mark, he still counts it as a single hour lesson which surprised me. I have huge respects for Mark for being such an awesome teacher and person. He also provides a lot of help outside of the lesson by being online to chat with regarding a recent loss or queries on mechanics or even just a random chat. I look forward in scheduling more lessons with Mark in the future to achieve my goal of getting and to support Mark in his goal being the boss toss of SEA and hopefully be able to see him in international competitions!

Like to say a big thanks yang for taking the time to help! Really appreciate it!
Anyone else who has had lessons with yang and want to say something, please don't be shy to pile on in this thread!

Peace!
