I need help altering my play style. I always try to have a pawn advantage then force endgame by exchanging off pieces. It defeats the purpose of seeing tactics which I am training for. It just simplifies the game and go for a passed pawn in the endgame to win. How do I change this style? Thanks.

Hello, I don't have skype, but I have zoom, would that work? I am still relatively new to chess, only have been playing for under a year, and I would love to learn the skill! If zoom works for you, then I would like to try your free lessons, except I can only be online from 4:20-9:30, message me if this works.
Thanks,
Michael
