Experienced Bridge Teacher and Director

I'm Garry Viner.

You might recognise me from North Shore Bridge Club. I've been teaching there for a couple of years, working with those who are new to the game, and those who simply want to improve. I have created two courses for new players, supervise recent learners, and direct occasionally.

I've been a bridge player for over 35 years. I started playing as a student, and represented NSW as a youth player.

I'm a strong player who does very well in competition, but I'd be the first to admit that there are better players out there. If you want to learn from a national champion, I'm not your guy.

But what I am particularly good at is giving clear guidance on how to improve your game. I'm very patient, have what some would describe as a unique sense of humour, and my approach is always to make the experience as engaging and informative as possible.

As a result I am now offering private tutoring for individuals, partnerships and small groups to complement NBSC's existing face-to-face and online sessions.
