You can find lessons by someone for much less. I found a teacher for 20 an
hour, and we frequently went over an hour. He had already achieved won GM
norm when I studied with him.

For parents, don't go the GM route, get a strong player to help (unless your
child is a Karjakin prodigy.) A player rated 1900 can offer much to a
player rated 800-1300. And , the 1900 rated player will be very happy to
make some money.
