Various Techniques Mosaic Course

There can be no better environment to learn the art of mosaic making than this school. The experienced knowledgeable teacher points you in the right direction in a kindly manner helping you to get the best out of the medium. I can’t recommend it highly enough. It’s an awesome place!

Catherine is an excellent teacher. She is always very helpful and supportive so I signed up for the second course to be taught again by her. Sadly the room is not in the best shape with a leaking roof and temperamental lighting.

I really enjoy participating in the mosaic courses at The London School of Mosaics. The teachers are really approachable and helpful and I feel like I have learnt a lot about mosaics and different variations! I liked working on their volunteering projects recently! I would definitely recommend booking a course!

Outside my home this is my favourite place to be. Great school brilliant teachers

I have been with the LSoM for many years. Our teacher is fantastic. She knows exactly when to instruct or offer suggestions and when to leave us to explore our own style. The choice of materials is great and the space is perfect. I highly recommend giving this a try. Like me, you too may become an addict!

Catherine enables students to make their own individual projects allowing us all to develop different skills.

Catherine was an amazing teacher as always. Her advice & encouragement is inspiring. The range of materials is superb. I look forward to coming back.

I attended a 5-day mosaics course at LSoM under the guidance and supervision of Mrs. Catherine Parkinson. Everything was perfect!! An abundance of materials and tools to start with, anything one would need or didn't know he/she needed but now does. The space was inspiring as well, seasoned professionals executing mosaics and welcoming us to watch and learn. We obtained so much knowledge just by watching a master at work... The best part of the experience however was our teacher. Catherine was awesome!! She taught, explained, guided and advised while at the same time allowing us, her students, to take decisions regarding our work and, once we did, again guiding us to execute to the best of our abilities. She treated us with respect, humour and humanity, one could not wish for a better person to teach the course. Last, I must say a few words for "Mother", the cafe adjacent to the school. Good food, friendly service, ambiance. Our lunch break was a pleasurable experience in itself.

I had a wonderful time! I thoroughly enjoyed the course. Cathrine Parkinson is a very good teacher.

Great course. I thoroughly recommend it for beginners and more experienced mosaicists who are looking for a bit of guidance/inspiration.

A fantastic course. I would highly recommend

LSoMosaic is a well equipped and convivial space to develop your own work with excellent support available when needed. I’m hooked on the medium and the method, and appreciate the quality of teaching and the facilities of the school generally.

Brilliantly taught by Catherine Parkinson who is very encouraging and enables each student to follow their choice of technique and style

I have really enjoyed learning about mosaics and Cathy was a very patient teacher.

I love the weekly mosaic class under the supervision and guidance of Catherine Parkinson, who is an inspirational and very patient teacher! The new workspace is comfortable and there is a large range of materials to choose from. If you want to learn more about the art of mosaics this is the place to be! Highly recommend.

Catherine is a great teacher. This is my second course with her

I can’t imagine a better set up for learning and developing the skills needed to make a successful mosaic project. You are guided and supported through the processes thanks to knowledgeable experts. Can’t ask for more… Thank you Catherine and LS of M

Catherine patiently helped me work out how to turn my ideas into a practical mosaic project so now I'm really excited to begin

Wonderful inspirational teacher in an artistic atmosphere. My favourite time of the week.

I love this class and the new studio is spacious, bright and well equipped. Catherine is an exceptional teacher. She is patient, understanding and has a full understanding of technique while always respecting the student’s interpretation of design.

This place is a gem. It's a very friendly and the classes have never disappointed . The teachers are very knowledgeable and I always earned something new. The teachers also nudge you along if you're unsure and at the same time allow you the space to experiment and be authentic with your designs. The range of materials is huge and it's like like an Aladdin's cave .

This is a great class in which to find and then polish your craft. Catherine is an excellent teacher, patient and always with suggestions how to deal with difficult shaping. The range of materials is exemplary. For me and the other students in the class, this provides an absolute haven on a Thursday night towards the end of the working week. I would thoroughly recommend if you are interested in music.

Wonderful inspirational place with excellent tuition for those who are starting out on this journey and inspiration for those as they continue their journey into the world of mosaics.

The 5-day course was a great experience, very enjoyable in a friendly studio with an excellent instructor, Catherine, giving advice and encouragement throughout. I would thoroughly recommend this course if you have any inkling at all to learn about mosaic and will definitely do this again.

Relaxing class with great tuition and results. Highly recommend!

100% recommendation. Catherine is both a clear and supportive tutor. Good at quickly understanding each students needs. A wonderfully inspiring space mixing masters and beginners in one large studio. Book now- you won’t regret it.

Really enjoying the course. Excellent guidance from Catherine.

I love this class. Our teacher Catherine encourages us to convert our ideas into beautiful pieces of creative art.

Really enjoying my classes with Catherine. She is a very patient teacher and always on hand to give you a steer if you want/need one - but also gives you space to do your own thing. Highly recommended.

Brilliant class, brilliant teacher, brilliant studio!

Best decision I’ve made in a long time to study at the London school of Mosaic. It’s so chilled and wonderful to be amongst such helpful students and staff. Genuinely cannot find fault :)

This class is absolutely amazing. I am learning new skills and the level of teaching is superb. You have to try it to believe it!

Wonderful to be back at LSM - excellent teaching, super helpful staff and a welcoming studio to work in. Highly recommend.

Very professional and helpful teacher,

Great course, well resourced and taught.

Inspirational teacher Catherine Parkinson encourages, instructs and make the class enjoyable while learning about mosaics. All techniques are taught and having been to Caterine's classes for about 10 years I am still learning and enjoying her courses.

A very enjoyable course ran by experienced, considerate and very patient tutor Catherine Parkinson. Highly recommended.

I am taking the Various Techniques Mosaic course from Catherine Parkinson in Fall 2022. It is a terrific course, exposing you to a variety of mosaic techniques. You choose one of these techniques to develop a project with. Catherine is a very supportive and experienced teacher, she has encouraged me to do a project that is challenging but I am quite happy with the results!

LSoM is such a great environment to work in. Lots of inspirational work around to look at, students and tutors friendly and helpful, and an excellent variety of equipment and materials to use to create your ideas. Then put Catherine into the mix ....................! She is a wonderful teacher, knowledgeable, encouraging and always able to spot just what it is that will help your project progress.

excellent class teacher very helpful and good choice of materials.

Excellent teacher, patient, and very knowledgeable .

Wonderful teacher, passionate and patience, ready to answer to a million questions!

Excellent class with a wonderful inspirational teacher

A most enjoyable class run by a warm & helpfull teacher She is always willing to help & wants us to enjoy the class

Catherine is a great teacher and always helpful, and encouraging. No wonder I keep coming back.

I didn’t expect to enjoy the course as much as I did; it was well organised, well timed and well explained. Catherine- the teacher made sure everyone had her attention if needed; guided through the phases and different techniques. Thank you once again Catherine.

I attended a one week mosaic course which was fantastic. The teacher was really helpful and encouraged us to explore new ideas and techniques and the facilities are excellent. The atmosphere is welcoming and the cafe is excellent.

Great class. Great teacher. Great fellow 'students'. Catherine is amazing as the tutor. She is generous with both her time and (in my case) her patience as well as being very supportive. A brilliant introduction into mosaics.

Absolutely love this class and the tutor is super knowledgeable and good at getting the best out of each student. I am a repeat customer and am always impressed with the variety and quality of work produced under Catherine’ s expert guidance

I always enjoy my courses here with Katherine. I learn so much and the school is just amazing. The facilities, the dedicated space and staff have all been brilliant

It is so much more than I expected! Catherine is an amazing tutor. Can't wait for next Friday. So glad I enrolled with London school of mosaic.

A wonderful class with a teacher Catherine, who inspires you to create. Whatever level you are learning every week in an enjoyable environment with like-minded people. It is the highlight of my week.

For a first timer this week long course couldn’t have been bettered. Hugely supportive teacher (Catherine) made for an enjoyable, rewarding learning experience. Highly recommend.

A really great week. I learnt a lot and had time to develop some new work. Thanks !

Great course, lovely tutor, fabulous venue. Thank you!

Fantastic course, superb amenities, warm atmosphere and terrific teaching. Really great bunch of students too - highly recommend

I love this class. Students get to work on their own projects with the expertise and encouragement of our teacher Catherine Parkinson.

Excellent teaching and resources.

My group was very friendly and made me feel very welcome as the new person. Catherine was brilliant too being very patient with me and explaining things in an easy to take in way - although I will probably need reminding.

You only have to see how many of Catherine's students return to her classes term after term, year after year to know how wonderful her courses are. I am a 'newbie' having attended for the first time in the autumn of 2021 but I am back in January 2022 and will be back for more too. We listing to Songs for Swinging Snippers as we shape our pieces of glass and ceramics ... the evenings speed by despite us all sitting there just snipping away. Book early everyone, if you don't you will be too late!!

Wonderful as ever. The calmest part of my week.

I love this class. Making mosaics is very mindful and Catherine brings out the creativity in her students

This class is the highlight of my week. I have learnt so much and the choice of materials is exceptional. The teaching is of a very high standard and the classes are still nice and small because of covid so it is a safe environment. I can not recommend it highly enough.

Excellent class, well run, well resourced and very interesting

Professional tutor, very organised, very friendly and helpful. Very supportive to explore ideas. Materials offer a fantastic choice.

Learning the various ways of techniques at the London School of Mosaic is truly inspiring and enjoyable.

Exceptionally enjoyable - and productive.

This is my second "Various techniques mosaic course" ans i recommend this course for beginners as well for initiaites. The teacher, Katherine Parkinson, is very competent and attentive. A wide choice of materials and techniques are available too. This is "the place to be" to improve your mosaic skills !

I have done many mosaic courses but have never had a teacher who was as skilled as the teacher on this course. She is excellent. The space is large and there are a lot of supplies and a library for ideas and its the perfect place to do mosaic. Its the highlight of my week.

The first class of Various Techniques Mosaic Course was very informative. The teaching methods are clear and the materials are good quality and teaching to a high standard. Its great to get stuck into a new hobby and meet people at the same time. The library is good for any research and the LSoM a lively community be a part of.

Really enjoyable class with inspirational tutor and like minded students. Highlight of my week.

Catherine is such an encouraging teacher, who always has a good suggestion as to which direction to take ones work.

Excellent course. Excellent teacher. Excellent venue.

I love going to this course. A highlight of my week.

I’ve attended only one term by now and I’m more than happy with everything from LSM. Very friendly place. Teacher, students and staff where great. I’m looking forward to restarting my classes as soon as we finish with this Corona viruses.

A brilliant course! Catherine is a great teacher and so knowledgable about mosaics. I love the way she pushes me out of my comfort zone. And I always learn something new in every session.

This course is excellent. The teacher is very encouraging and all the staff are helpful. There is plenty of material available and the students produce amazing work.

Excellent teaching and great to have everything supplied.

Excellent course, lots of help using various techniques and media.

As always the course was fantastic. Great venue and resources and the teacher Catherine manages to support, advise and challenge without imposing or being overwhelming. I would highly recommend any classes she teaches. Lucy
