Teach bridge with Cuebids
Lessons, quizzes and real deals for your class, in the app your students already practice in. Free for teachers who bring their students.
Why it is free
Teachers bring new players to bridge, and many of them find their way to Cuebids. We would rather give something back than charge for that.
So if you teach and bring your students, the teacher tools cost you nothing. Your students play on their own accounts; the only thing we ask is the part you do anyway.
What you can build
Lessons
Pages with hands and auctions, then a quiz, then bidding practice in the app: one lesson a student works through at their own pace, or you present full screen in class.
Flashcards and quizzes
Nine kinds of card, from “what do you bid?” to pick the hand and bid the auction, each with a hand and the auction so far.
Deals and sets
Sets from a deal search, your saved deals, a deal type or scenario, a PBN file, or written by hand, card by card. Each deal with your suggested auction.
You as their partner
When a student practices your set, the robot partner carries your name and picture and bids your suggested auction. If the student bids something else, Lia takes over.
Your class
Students join with a code, a link or a QR code, and see your picture as they join. Share a lesson and see how far each student got, their quiz scores and the deals they practiced. Switch on class events when the class is ready for them.
Your name on a lesson
Send a lesson you are proud of to Cuebids. If we publish it, every player finds it in Learn with your name on it, and we thank you with a gift.
A lesson, as your students see it
This is a real slide, drawn by the same code the app uses. You write it in plain text with a toolbar for hands, auctions and worked examples; calls like 2C get their suit symbols by themselves.
How it stays free

Ask, and teach
Answer two questions in the app. Your teacher tools are on at once, free for six months.

Your whole class practices
A lesson’s practice is open to every student in your class, whatever their plan.
What your students pay
