The American Collegiate Go Association’s free weekly Go lessons are now available every Saturday from 5 - 7 pm ET via Zoom.
Led by instructors Howard Wong 2D, Andrew McGowan 1D and Jerry Ju 3D, the lessons “strive to provide an inclusive and supportive environment for players to deepen their understanding of the game,” says the ACGA. “I want to give back to the Go community,” said Wong said. “I hope to teach a new generation of players about the beauty of Go.”
The instructors hope to see more people, especially youth, participate in the lessons.
“Teaching benefits the teacher as well as the student,” said Andrew McGowan. “I hope more people will join our sessions and create a contagious atmosphere of friendly competition and supportiveness.” The lessons, which began earlier this month, have already garnered positive feedback from participants. “It’s amazing that there’s a free resource for learning Go. I really love that,” said Jim Seibert, one of the participants.
