Marguerite reviewed: Making a mosaic with slate

"A really enjoyable workshop and a great introduction to both working with slate and mosaic making. Rachel explains the techniques well in a friendly and informative manner. She's a mine of information and has a wonderful range of materials to work with. I can't believe how quickly the time passed and it was great to come away with a finished piece of work."

"My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed this course. Rachel was very welcoming and gave as much or as little direction as each individual required. She is very knowledgeable about where all the different kinds of slate available came from. We were both delighted with the work we produced and can't wait to have it hanging up at home."

"Thoroughly enjoyed the course, learned so much and came away with a piece of work I am really quite proud of. Has definitely inspired me to have a go at home. Rachel is a lovely host and tutor. Everything was ready for us and a wonderful choice of materials to use. Extremely good value and I have already recommended it to several friends. Hope to attend again."

Claire reviewed: Making a mosaic with slate

"Thoroughly enjoyed this course - Rachel is an excellent teacher! I did a full day course and brought my 14 year old niece along - as a measure of how good the course was, this is the longest I've seen my niece without a phone in her hand in ages! She loved it! Great to have a course that is suitable for a mix of ages and abilities. The full day offered great flexibility to be able to experiment with different materials, colours and techniques, and to make multiple pieces. Excellent value for money (and lovely lunch too!). This was my first experience of mosaic work, and I'd thoroughly recommend this course."

"I really enjoyed this workshop. Everthing required was supplied from tools and materials to excellent tuition. I’ve put my name down for another days workshop in May. Even though this was my first time working with slate and tiles, I’m really pleased with my mosaic and I can now plan my next piece. X K"

"This was my second workshop, because I enjoyed the first so much! Rachel is a knowledgeable and patient teacher, and taught and supported the skills needed for all participants to try out different techniques and leave with a beautiful mosaic. There were a huge range of materials available, and the workshop is in a lovely setting, surrounded by beautiful examples of Rachel’s own work for inspiration and examples. Cups of tea and homemade cake were a bonus!"
