Tuition
Individual and Group Tuition
I offer tuition in the Sydney and surrounding areas and am also happy to offer online tuition via email and video calling. Tuition can either be one-on-one individual tuition or in a class. The techniques I am able to offer tuition in are crewelwork, silk shading, canvas work, gold work, woollen embroidery and general surface embroidery.
I am also more than happy to offer classes and workshops in retail stores around Australia. Please contact me to discuss your ideas and needs!
Where will I teach?
Tuition will take place in my home on the lower North Shore of Sydney unless otherwise arranged. Please note – I do have a dog. If this is an issue, please ensure I am aware of this when making your booking.
I am, however, happy to travel to ensure you don’t miss out on the enjoyment of this wonderful activity! This will incur additional travel charges.

What these charges include
The above charges are for my tuition in your preferred setting.
Material costs are in addition to these costs. I am more than happy to provide these to you and will work with you to ensure you achieve the desired outcome.
For tuition held in my home, this will include tea, coffee and snacks.
Tuition Hours
If you are booking a private one-on-one, individual class, the minimum booking time is two hours. This ensures you will learn the most from our time together.
Classes will run from 9:30 am to 3:30 pm, with an hours break for lunch. I am also happy to run half-day classes.
Class sizes
To ensure all students are offered the best possible learning experience, classes are capped at a maximum of ten students.

Terms and Conditions
Classes and Workshops
Signing up for any workshops held is on a first come, first served basis. At the time of signing up, the full amount due must be paid. This full amount will be reimbursed if I need to cancel the workshop. If you, for what reason, need to cancel the workshop, it is agreed that: AUD15 administration costs will be subtracted when cancelled 30 days in advance; after this 30 day period, you will not be reimbursed unless you find a replacement person (administration costs will still be due); if there is a waiting list, I will gladly help you in finding that replacement. Taking part in the course at my home studio is of your own risk and responsibility. No liability is taken for damage to persons or properties. Upon booking you bindingly agree to these terms and conditions.
Individual Tuition
Payment for individual tuition is due within three days of booking. If payment is not received within three days, I reserve the right to cancel your booking.
