Welcome to my website!
Here is a clearinghouse of information on Leslie Shafer and Charlie Williams' bridge teaching activities.
If you have any questions that you don't see addressed on this website, please let me know.
The best 10 years of my life started when I began to teach bridge full time, meeting all of you and making
so many new friends. What a blessing it is to be able to love your job. Not only is bridge a wonderful sport,
but we have found that for many students, it has enriched their own personal social contacts.
Our mission statement is to spread the love of bridge to everyone.
On this site, you will find a list of both current and upcoming classes in the Montgomery
County (Maryland) area. You will also find my classroom policies, humor, the best internet
bridge sites and so much more. I hope you enjoy what I have included here in the website for you.

Etiquette, Protocols and Rules of Bridge
For All Levels of Students!
Ron Kral, a bridge teacher in Virginia, wrote a fabulous article on common rules of bridge that confuse most new players,
as well as more experienced students, too. I have his permission to post his article on my website.
