Letter from a parent samples: "Just want to thank you for wonderful private lesson with Jon. The three girls LOVED it! Jon was excellent - patient and easy-going while keeping the lesson moving and right on-time. A rare skill! Thank you again for the opportunity for these girls to share this experience. It will last them a lifetime. Best, Carolyn"
we took a private pottery lesson with Patty, one of the two owners. Patty was a joy to work with and clearly, an expert in working with clay. The class was fantastic. My two kids (9 and 12) and I each ended up with a slightly different and very attractive piece of pottery. We had a great time.
"Patty, many thanks again for our private lesson yesterday! Nathan, Ava, Claire & 2-timer Grace had a blast, felt like they really learned something and are eager to do more! You're such a wonderful teacher ... their bowls will NOT be handed off to their Moms ... they can't wait to show, tell and use them! Jackie".. More letters |
