About Me

I’m Jonathan, a London-based bridge player and teacher. I specialise in helping beginners all the way up to strong club players.

My lessons are structured, friendly, and tailored to you. Whether you’ve never played before and want to learn, or you want better results in club or tournament play, I’ll help you improve quickly and confidently.

I also host a podcast about bridge in partnership with the EBU called TableTalk which you can find on all Podcast platforms.

I have partnered with English Bridge Education and Development to deliver the most up to date and relevant training materials.

Teaching - I can teach beginner, improver, and advanced courses for both acol and 5 Card-Majors and am happy to travel teach at other clubs

Directing - I am an EBU Club director and have run duplicates at my own club, on bridge weekends, and even in the House of Lords!

Board Dealing - I have a dealing machine and can deal boards for duplicates at your club as well as print hand records in a readable format with your club’s branding, to save you the hassle
