..Hello folks, I'd like to offer coaching sessions in small stakes online No Limit Hold'Em. A typical session would last about an hour (give or take, depending on the flow of the session.) The programs used will be Teamviewer, Skype, and whichever poker client you use. Working headset and a mic required.
Some of my qualifications:
 Winning small stakes online player for 2+ years;
5bb/100 winrate;
Coached losing/break even players into winning/+EV players;
Have been coached by two solid, winning players in the past;
Play/Study poker 12hours/6hours a week. Never stop learning.
Here is some of what the sessions will entail:
6max NLHE.
Solid poker foundation/fundamentals teaching;
Small stakes mindset/theory/strategy;
Math/statistics/probability/pot odds/implied odds/fold equity and how to use them to your advantage;
Villain types/tendencies and how to extract money from them;
Preflop hand selection. When to fold/bet, call/raise, and why;
Post flop gameplan. Knowing when your ahead/behind.
Small stakes philosophy to turn you into a analytical player.
Advocate aggressive play. Theory behind why this is the more profitable play style.
Foundation and fundamentals are very simple and can make anyone a winning player at small stakes. My sessions will lay the ground work to your game. After you have grasped the basics, expanding your game to distinguish the type of villains you are playing against will net you more profit. Learning how to exploit the people you are playing with will catapult you into crushing the tables.
Contact me in game or leave a reply here. Feel free to contact me to ask questions. First student will get a reduced rate. Willing to receive payments 1/2 before session, 1/2 after.

I too believe that you might lure more interested people should you post the aprox costs rather than having people mail you for them. A great many people feel obliged to purchase something after asking for a price (even though they shouldn't) and therefor do not ask it if they are not certain they wish to buy it.
Other than that, nice service.

..You are probably right in that respect. I posted this in the price check forum for a week and did not get any replies. The hard part is figuring out what a fair price is. Coaching for real money (dollars) is defined by a few things, here's an example:
Twice the buyin for the stake you want to receive coaching for. I.E. If I am playing at 10NL(.5c, .10c blind level) the price for one hour of coaching would be $20. If it were at 50NL (.25c, .50c blind level) the price would be $100 an hour. Now translate that into isk, lets say for a player at 5NL (.2c, .5c blind level) Two buyins is $10. $10 is 2/3rds the cost of a month of eve play time. 60 day time cards sell for roughly 500,000,000 isk. So 2/3rds of 250,000,000 is 166,666,666.
I need to figure out what is a fair price for the student, and a fair price for my hour of time.

..I have made contact with four people, two of which have set a date to begin coaching. The other two have expressed interest when their real life free time opens up a bit. Feel free to contact me for questions and set your date for expanding your poker game.

Shameless Plug: Anyone who is learning how to play should swing by EOH and play on our low-stake ring tables for practice with other EVE players =)
Creative service offering, by the way.
