I'm interested in coaching, my prices are a bit high though I think, I'll lower them for the SEA community =], I'd be happy to do some free coaching also we need more Terrans!

While is all useful for regular maintenance-type of learning (analysing your own replays regularly; watching and learning builds and from the pros etc). I feel the importance of having a coach is important. I will always remember the few actual sit down type of coachings I have had experienced.

For example, when I had that one coaching from PiG, he saw and was able to explain the importance of certain things which though I knew was important, was not quite explained that way before. I remember sharing a build I made up and he said that there was potential and suggested some refinements as well. Then the advice that stuck the most was, I could make (almost) any build work as long as my mechanics were good. That gave me a huge confidence boost.

Sometimes having a 3rd person watch your replays with you, make a lot of difference because he will see or point things out you would normally miss or thought yes it should be done but it's not critical, but when if adjusted, actually makes a big difference.

At the moment, especially in mGG or even in the GPD opens, we have suddenly a lot of diamond terrans. I wished many times we have a regular mentor(s)/coach(s) that can guide/coach them. Perhaps to have more SEA terran hopes, if we can find that missing link (a coach or mentor) to propel them further, perhaps that can happen?

I can do it!

Pro players change up their builds because their opponents know them. On ladder your opponents don't know you (except on SEA where you probably know the other 4 players). They see a snapshot, one game, one build, so make that snapshot the best it can possibly be while you are grinding. "I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times." Not the first time I've refferenced this quote and probably not the last.

Just saying Cabracan was my orginal coach and everything he has said here gets my +1. best way to improve watch your scvs and supply the whole time in a replay. everytime you arn't making them up to you number of 3 base scvs or are supply blocked do 5 press ups, until you have that down to getting that max number without supply blocking or missing an scv you shouldnt worry about anything else from there make sure you dont overload your command centers with extra scvs before needed, if you are stacking them you are wasting minerals that could be on marines. once you get this step sorted you move onto doing the same with barracks, then factories/starports then engineering bays. in the end your build at low elo doesnt really matter you can simply beat people by out macroing them. hope this helps in some small way
