- 5/5 from Rion Kato, attended Apr 2026: It’s easy for me to learn how to make coffee. Because the teacher taught me A to Z.
- 5/5 from PatrÃcia Oliveira, attended Feb 2026: The class was really interesting, the teacher is a pro and you learn very easily
- 5/5 from Dominic Chui, attended Dec 2025: We did the Barista Beginner Class and Deft was exceptionally clear and easy to follow in his teaching and explanations and demonstrations. He is a master at his craft which of course can be seen by his many awards won from competitions. He was extremely attentive to each student and ensured that everyone was looked after. It was a really fun session of learning the process of coffee brewing. 10/10 would come back for the Latte Art and Advanced classes.
- 5/5 from Orly Wang, attended Dec 2025: The instructor Deft explained everything very clearly, and the small-group classes made it easy to adjust each person’s posture and technique during practice. I highly recommend this course for beginners or anyone who wants to improve their coffee skills.
- 5/5 from Amelia Wareing, attended Nov 2025: Lots of fun, very easy to follow even for a total beginner. Teaches you all the basics you need, and the teacher was great.
- 5/5 from Eric Moon, attended May 2025: We had a great time! The class was very detailed and we're excited to hopefully start making our own coffee at home!
- 5/5 from Tea Smith, attended Mar 2025: The tutor Fei was super knowledgeable and explained everything clearly - also allowed us to practice numerous times without judgement.
- 5/5 from Mette Moberg, attended Feb 2025: Really recommend this class, very throughout teaching and plenty of time to practise.
