Great course for a strong foundation in playing Go.

To quote Shi Guang from Qihun: "围棋太难了!” but this course is a must take!! Vadim has a way to make such daunting concepts feel manageable and more importantly worthwhile to learn. Every closing line is a little encouragement. Jia You!! Each step is a step closer to become a grandmaster😁 or maybe to be able to finish the game without losing half your stones!

Imo really long but must have course. The etiquette part at the end was 10/10 👍

This course was easier for me than 13x13 for some reason and I did quizzes better. Vadim has something demonic in his eyes when he explains little Go tricks, I can hear him saying Japanese “gambare gambare” in my head )). Thanks a lot!

This is one of the best courses on Go Magic, it has everything you need to become a stronger player. I really liked it and of course Vadim's way of explaining things and making them easier is amazing. Good job Vadim.

An excellent follow-up to the 13x13 course.

An excellent follow-up to the 9x9 and 13x13 courses. This seems like a course to revisit several times as your skill and experience improves.

These modules alongside Go books have helped my understanding tremendously.

A great course for begginers on 19x19

The lessons were very instructive and provided excellent examples of the information being supplied in a manner that reenforced the method and application being provided. The associated quizzes were challenging examples of the lessons being provided while requiring serous analysis to solve.

Another great course! Need to come back to it some time later.

Everythink you need to learn about the basics of Go. And also quite entertaining.

A great overview for someone like me that is approaching the game og Go for the first time! At least now I know how to handle the basics in the 19x19 🙂
