Student Feedback
"The teacher was friendly, enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and very helpful."
"Payal was helpful, and through in her delivery and her notes. she was happy to help no matter the skill level of participants."
"The teacher was very good in explaining and extremely patient. She was attentive and worked with all students and taught the basics, which allows us to expand on our own if we want. I’d been trying for two years to crochet and not succeeded. She did a fantastic job teaching us and I would strongly recommend it to others."
"Excellent & enthusiastic teacher."
"The tutor is very passionate and knowledgeable about crocheting. She makes learning a new skill very enjoyable."
"Very passionate about the craft, caring and attentive of students."
"I love the small classes, that gives the opportunity to have a bit more attention from the tutor and ask questions if needed. I’ve been to other craft courses in other community courses and the classes had too many students so I never enjoy them – thank you for lettings us have a small and very enjoyable class to learn crochet properly!"
After the first session, subsequent sessions can be arranged with the teacher, at a time that suits you.
This class is great for individuals and couples as well as for a birthday or hens party.
This would also be a nice gift for her, gift for mum, anniversary gift or birthday gift.
