Kim's Bridge Lessons - Spring 2023 Schedule - Starting April 17
All lessons are online; class times are Eastern (US-New York) Time.
My name is Kim Gilman and I love playing and teaching the great game of bridge! I live in Carlisle, MA and have taught more than a thousand students in the Boston area. Now, I teach students from all over, in online bridge classes!
I use the amazing Shark Bridge teaching program which replicates what I did in-person: I give you the lesson of the day, and you play hands to practice. After each deal, you see all four hands "face-up" and watch me "replay" them talking about the important strategies to be learned.
My goals at are to help you learn useful techniques, meet new bridge friends, and go on to achieve success in the game.....all while having fun and enjoying yourself in class.
What My Students Are Saying:
“Kim has a wonderful teaching style, and knows how to relay information so that we can understand. She is always sooo well prepared! I am very happy that I got involved with her classes.”
Bernice F., Virginia Beach, VA
“I hope you continue with online classes. They are terrific and my bridge-playing friends are amazed at my progress. ”

Jane S., Toronto, ON Canada
“My partner and I appreciate and admire Kim as a careful, sophisticated teacher who's also relaxed and funny. What a great combination!”
Julia F., Cambridge, MA
“Kim is an excellent teacher, well organized, patient and clear. The best testimony I can give is that I will be signing up for more.”
