Pauline and Robert Plampin reviewed: Beginners Pottery Day Course

"We had a wonderful day! Mathew is a very gifted and patient teacher. It was our first time using a wheel, we learnt a lot, laughed a lot and were amazed and delighted by what we managed to achieve. Thank you!"

Dimbleby Ceramics - Studio Pottery Courses responded:

"Thank you for the lovely review. I had a great day teaching both of you and lots of laughter throughout the day. The pots that you made are fantastic. Best wishes Mathew"

Carole Taylor reviewed: Beginners Pottery Day Course

"I’d never touched a potter's wheel before and was uncertain what to expect from the course. Matthew is a great teacher and with his encouragement I was able to make and decorate four differently shaped pots. The whole session was an amazing and thoroughly enjoyable experience (looking forward to collecting my work once it has been fired). "

Dimbleby Ceramics - Studio Pottery Courses responded:

"Hi Carole, It was a pleasure to have you on the course and see the progress that you made throughout the day. The forms you produced were lovely, even and balanced, they will look fantastic when they have been fired. Best wishes Mathew"

Martin Wigley reviewed: Beginners Pottery Day Course

"We did this course as a family for my Wife's birthday. Mat was a fabulous tutor and was able to coax quite amazing pieces of work from us all. This was especially impressive as none of us had ever thrown a pot before. All in all an absolutely brilliant day!"
