Progressive Basketry - Small Group and 1-1 in the Workshop (Socially Distanced)
'Workshop Weeks' are held in my workshop with a maximum of 3 students at a time (1 or 2 while social distancing measures are in place). These will run from Monday to Thursday and students will choose either 2, 3 or 4 day packages of tuition. For students who are serious about making progress I can offer 1-1 support between sessions via Zoom (I have been trialling this with a Canadian student very successfully).The teacher/student numbers are very favourable and specific homework will be provided -I have tried to keep the costs reasonable to reflect the times we are living in. I would hope and expect that students progress will be much faster than dotting around doing courses with different teachers.
For Beginners the programme starts right at the beginning with sorting and preparing materials and runs right through a progressive programme, for intermediates I would expect students to be choosing and focussing on a specific skill or basket they wish to make.
Costs:
Workshop Week (2 students max for 2020) £90 per day tuition, minimum of 2 days - materials extra depending on use(Bed and breakfast available with me - use of the workshop outside formal tuition times welcome)Zoom 1-1 tutorials £70 per session (approximately 1-2 hours tuition face to face - demonstration plus observation of student weaving) plus support materials and email support between sessions.
