Information for Tutors
The Scottish Bridge Union depends on the excellent work of a small but growing army of tutors. More tutors are required both for adults, primary and secondary pupils. If you would like to discuss being a tutor contact your Education Convener or complete contact form stating you are interested and where you live.
There is an SBU Education Dropbox which contains resources for bridge Education. To apply for access go to SBU Education Convener stating you wish access.
The dropbox contains course material for the 60 SBU lessons with a powerpoint presentation, a handout quiz and dealfiles in different formats for each lesson.
There is also the course material for Minibridge in Primary Schools and the course for secondary schools will be added as it becomes available.
