About Your Instructor
I have been teaching bridge for 4 years and hold a Life Master rank with the ACBL. My teaching philosophy emphasizes a practical, hands-on approach that makes learning enjoyable for beginners and intermediates.
I have more than 60 students at Concord Country Club who have been taking lessons from me in the last 3 years. And I have approximately 28 students at The Country Club in Brookline taking lessons from me in the last 6 months.
Here is some feedback I got from my students: "Thanks so much for your help. You would not believe how often your name comes up. EVERYONE says what a great teacher you are. They like they can ask a question - no matter how basic or possibly stupid - and you show such patience and a true interest in helping them." "Thank you for your excellent teaching, your pragmatic approach and your playful attitude. It made learning bridge much less daunting. I look forward to more lessons in the fall." "Mine- Thank you! I so enjoyed the class and you seemed so happy to teach us and were patient with our repeated questions." "Thank you, Mine, for sharing the game of bridge with us in a thoughtful, understandable, supportive, patient and lighthearted way. Your efforts make me look forward to coming each week! I look forward to learning more with you all!!" "I have really enjoyed learning from you and so appreciate your approachable patient teaching style" "You have taught us with great clarity... and patience!" "You are an excellent teacher and I am impressed how you can simplify such complicated lessons and also be very intuitive as to what the students may need clarification or help with! Thanks for your help and wisdom!" "You have been such a help to my bridge experience and understanding, and I want you to know how terrific you are! You have a gentle and very patient nature, and I love our making knowing eye contact from time to time! 😊 Many thanks for inspiring us to be better and making the game more fun! I wish you well and send you warmest thanks!" "Thank you for offering these lessons. You are a superlative teacher!" "Thank you so much for putting up with our unsteady bridge progress! I look forward to getting better and better." "Missing you Mine and all of you! That was so fun. Let's do it again in the fall!"
