From the course:

My dear friend and my rising champion!

Avo here, that same Grandmaster Avetik Grigoryan.

In two conditions, I’ll throw myself from the window.
1 - If you follow the course instructions and don’t cross at least an 800+ rating.
2 - If you get bored at some point while watching the course.

This is what I had in mind while preparing this course for you.

But as I love my life and didn’t want to jump out of the window, I set myself a challenging task—to create the best, most fun, and most fundamental course for beginners.

I wrote and rewrote, recorded and re-recorded, hesitated, and tested. Often, the solutions to explaining a difficult concept came to me while sleeping—and like that, for over one year!

But okay, I also had lots of fun (as you’ll see) while preparing this for you. Most importantly, I hope that YOU will have fun, enjoy, laugh, and…learn. Eventually crossing at least 800+ rating.

Otherwise, at least buy me a parachute! 🙂
I live on the 10th floor. If I jump from there without anything, at minimum, it’ll hurt 😀

So, my champions. My life is in your hands. Haha 😂

Love you. And I’ll love you more if I’m alive.

With best wishes,
GM Avetik (or Avo, as my friends call me)
