WHAT STUDENTS ARE SAYING ABOUT THIS CLASS:
Graeme B. (December 2022)
First class lead-lighting course. Superb teacher (Neil).Lovely, relaxed and very friendly environment. Made some wonderful new friends and learned some great new skills. Have already recommended to several others.
Lisa P. (July 2022)
Neil is an enthusiastic teacher who is encouraging and always happy to help. The atmosphere in the class is mostly one of concentration but cheerful and supportive.
I started Neil’s classes over two years ago and at first the class was small in number. Now the class is so popular, Neil has two full classes per week.
Many students enrol again after their first term.

Personally, I always look forward to Neil’s class, knowing I will be learning new skills in an enjoyable way. Neil goes the extra mile to make sure each project is completed to a high standard. My project was a stained glass window and Neil helped every step of the way. He even came to help us install it!
