+752 points from almost zero is nothing. Again, I see there is no real advice on how to improve from 2200 to 2952, because you don't need to be GM to say that's it's hard. You don't need to be a GM neither to give advice about improvements for beginners, even I can do this with the same success

This article is meant to be helpful for beginners (U1000), not for 2200-2952 elo. Yes, of course you can do this with the same success, but Studer tries to tell you what the BEST way is.
It’s actually just an success story.
Maybe you didn’t find it helpful, but it can be helpful for people rated under 1000.
So your comment doesn’t say anything.

Perhaps I can suggest an even better method.
Create a new lichess account, play one game and win it. Get around 1500 Elo (0 -> 1500). If you fail to win the first game, try again from the beginning.
Perhaps the advice in the article is really useful for beginners, but it is unlikely that it will be useful for them to concentrate on their rating. It is really bad suggestion and bad title for the article. Again, if instead of improving his game, a beginner tries to get more rating points, it is easier to take advantage of the imperfections of the scoring system than to improve his game.

Am I the only one who looked at the original thumbnail and though "Oh look a ReLU graph, must be about machine learning"?
Improvement in chess is not linear, it's logarithmic. Like was said already, going from 200 to 1000 is far easier than going from 1000 to 1800 or 1800 to 2600. So saying you helped your student go from 200 to 1000 doesn't impress me, especially if they're young and committed. Most people get stuck on their rating because they already got the low hanging fruits of chess improvement and need some hardcore effort and a lot of time to reach the higher levels, more so when they're older.
On a side note, there has been a lot of coverage on r/chess about that famous former Lol streamer Tyler1 who has been addicted to chess and he went from 300 to 1400 rapid in half the time and he did that without coaching, just playing a lot of games.

What a useless article, learning how to improve from roughly the bottom 1% to the bottom 10%
At that level it doesn't even require talent OR hard work (not saying that was not put in, but quite a few people can just learn the rules, play a few games and already land around this kind of rating)
