Liza has made up her mind: now is the time to learn that fantastic game of bridge! Liza is very enthusiastic and understands easily the many new concepts in our adventure. No pain, no gain! and she endures the process with that permanent smile on her face, chewing and digesting one difficulty after the other. This way she senses the nectar of the game, drop after drop, and sometimes rather bucket after bucket! An outstanding student who puts her analytical mind as well as her intuition at full power. Congrats, Lisa!

We have 4 students in the class, although the class is mostly split into 2 groups. All 4 are already making significant progress, starting with foundations and the sound but quick wins. Grisha is showing skills definitely enabling him to look for a bright future in bridge, provided he can invest enough time into the game. Vika is learning quickly and plays in a conservative, sound way, matching her improvements in the card play. Varda and Greg haven't had so far as much time to spend in the game, but are nonetheless progressing also at a good pace.

Carola and her family are very nice to teach: always enthusiastic, smiling and kidding. They get really hooked to the game and use the famous Italian inventivity to explore new paths with the help of the weapons that I make them discover. With them, bridge gets back all the creativity and excitement it deserves. Thank you my friends for sharing with me your experience and discoveries! Using their BBO nick names, here are the major skills I found out for each one: Cippos is very careful, analytical and concentrated. Tiziano61 is a gambler, willing to explore and take risks, likes psychological coups and bluffs; he is an epicurian. Cippos is a mixture between these two extremes; she is also a good organizer. We learnt that the best partnership between the 4 of us is having Cippins and Cippos together, against Tiziano and myself on the wilder side.

You cannot find anybody more enthusiastic than Ishkiia! She has been immersed into bridge as a child, filling the gap when a player was missing, and managed to be called again and again despite having received no prior training. And she did well! After all these years, Ishkiia felt the call of the table, and is now back. Time has come for getting the foundations so many players lack, and being well prepared to shine while still keeping the original fun and excitement. Ishkiia proves to be the perfect candidate to enjoy the game by using at best all her skills. Her common sense and natural logic backed by intuition make her a quick learner who will promptly be able to swim with grace among the sharks and other experienced menagerie found in the clubs and social games. Last but not least, she is just such a pleasure for her teacher: quick on the ball and always smiling!

Anne est passionnée de bridge. Tellement que je vais avoir du mal à lui transmettre encore plus d'envie de jouer, à part le plaisir de gagner davantage, d'augmenter sa confiance en soi, et celle du partenaire en sa maîtrise du jeu. Pour ce faire, nous bâtissons ensemble un édifice solide de fondamentaux qui transforment progressivement un historique de mémorisation en une attitude sereine faite de logique bien enracinée et de bonnes pratiques automatiques. Ceci permet de jouir de la table en mettant son énergie juste où et quand il faut. Anne s'applique bien et mérite amplement ses progrès. Elle est en outre d'une gentillesse et d'une modestie à toute épreuve.

Mayada started her adventure with me with a lot of potential. She had been playing old sound bridge a few years ago, and this kind of solid bridge approach is far from being outdated by current practices we are seeing around. On the contrary! I see her making quickly a lot of progress, by absorbing the intangible fundamentals which are actually almost never taught, and hands-on practice on the thought process that concentrates at the table on the essential reasoning and winning tactics. As promised, key to success is logic, not memory, and Mayada proves to have the abilities to massively benefit from this on her road to being a respected winner.

Christiane est débutante, mais elle en veut et ne se laisse pas décourager. Après tout, j'ai remarqué que c'est souvent un avantage d'être novice, car pas encore trop pollué par les dévots du bridge qui ne pensent que par les enseignements ex cathedra d'autrui. Comme dans tout enseignement, il s'agit de transmettre, non pas tant son savoir que l'essence de son expérience, et plus apprendre à nager par soi-même que mener en bateau...

Jean-Charles est très étonnamment extrêmement vif alors qu'il compte déjà pas mal de décennies. Il pose des questions très enrichissantes pour moi et apprend à très grande vitesse. Il est très nettement au-dessus de la moyenne des centaines d'élèves de bridge que j'ai déjà eus, alors qu'il les dépasse largement en âge.
