Rickysa Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 Hello! I'm in need of a teacher to help me learn the basics and good habits in the learning phase (although that is probably life-long :unsure: ) of Bridge play.I am a beginner studying SAYC and have taken two excellent online courses on beginning defense and 1NT responses. I am practicing cardplay with "BridgeMaster", but am in real need of something similar with the auction. I am in the EST zone and am flexible with scheduling. Thanks for your help!!

rona_ Posted June 3, 2006 Report Share Posted June 3, 2006 If you mean lessons for money I can recommend: o_bones (Mike Dorn Wiss), mcphee (Bob Mcphee), or Stanned (I don't remember his real name). You get better rates with people from Eastern Europe (stanned) but their hours would probably not suit you. Hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke warm Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 i'd add shep, who teaches a lot of beginners/intermediates and is great, from what i hear... the thing is, most teach 2/1 though i'm sure sayc is not beyond them :P ... maybe it might be worth your while learning 2/1? just a suggestion... oh, and whatever you do, stick with bridgemaster... a great program Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flame Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 I think its not appropritate to publish profesional teachers here.Publishing free teaching is fine but for those of us who take money its not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke warm Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 ok :blink: i just thought ricky might like a little info on what bbo has to offer... the lessons aren't expensive *and* bbo gets a cut... that's a good thing imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rona_ Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 I don't think bbo gets a cut but the forum is "find a Partner/Teacher". Is it only for free teachers? Have no idea :blink: I have seen Teachers advertise here and not for free lessons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uday Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 There are many teachers on BBO, with varying credentials. I usually refer people to Susan Doty at http://www.bridgeclasses.com/ but this is not an official BBO recommendation, just a personal one. BBO does not currently have a financial interest in any of these online lessons. BBO does not recommend one teacher over another, and BBO is not responsible for the quality of the service. ui Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke warm Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 oops, my bad... i thought (hoped) bbo got a cut of a teacher's fees since that's where their clients come from Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
