Good that we agree!

After reaching 2 dan 10 years ago I have not improved (perhaps I am
stronger in the fundamentals of the game - compensated by forgetting a
lot of stuff that were simple memorization).

I think the strong teacher option is what I need.

Still my point here is that there is always a bottleneck in what a
teacher can communicate to a student. The teacher is not aware of all
processing his brain actually does. And furthermore it is not enough for
the student to simply remember what is communicated, it is more a slow
reorganization of how go positions are processed.
