This year's course will build upon the first year syllabus of the "Bridge for All" programme recommended by the EBU (English Bridge Union) and which was supported by a comprehensive text book (the Red Book) published by the EBU.
The course will be taught by Associate Members of EBTA, the English Bridge Teachers Association, which was previously known as EBUTA. Corsham Bridge Club now has a team of 3 such teachers who will share the teaching for 2017/18, as last year.
The emphasis of our lessons is to have fun playing bridge, so we devote half of each lesson to supervised play.
The course will consist of up to 20 weekly lessons interspersed with ‘break’ weeks as necessary to take account of holidays etc. All teaching materials and student notes are included in the lesson charge.
As last year, the course programme will accommodate the wishes of the attendees to have some non-teaching sessions for pure play, or to revise and consolidate what has already been learnt, and to have fun ! In particular, the Tuesday lessons will be supplemented by ad-hoc get-togethers where the learners can practice their new skills playing with established players in a very informal and sociable environment. These supplementary sessions will usually be free of charge.
Unfortunately, the lesson venue is only accessible by stairs. Anyone for whom this may pose a problem should contact us for further information.
