Sudi is a great teacher, with a lot of experience in different areas and industries. She made sure everyone felt involved and had time to ask questions and participate. It was relaxed and natural, despite being hosted online (the new normal now). Great for those looking to dip their toes into food writing and get some new ideas.

This was such an enjoyable class. Sudi was great and made sure everyone got to speak and ask questions. We covered pitching, blogging and putting together a book proposal. Sudi was candid and inspirational. A great teacher for newbies as well as for more seasoned writers looking to experience other genres too. Recommended.

Sudi Foodie’s Writing course for foodies was a really interesting couple of hours... loved listening to everyone’s stories. There were plenty of good tips for writing/pitching. Even though I just want to write foodie blogs for fun... it made me think of, perhaps, making more of an effort and taking it further to fund my future foodie travels! Sudi is very personable and experienced in the world of food writing and generously offered to help with pitches/looking at stuff we’d written and help with pointers in the right direction. A great way to spend a Saturday afternoon in lockdown! Thank you Sudi!🙏😋😊😊

The Food Writing course was a really engaging and casual session that instilled attendees with much more confidence in their abilities and provided a range of really useful tips for people with a wide range of experience levels. It was great to have the conversation guided by the goals and interests of those taking part and take away pages of notes and ideas.

I absolutely loved the course. Sudi is a very inspirational professional who has plenty of experiences and tips to share. The course has helped me to consolidate the identity and personal print I would like to share through my blog. I also liked the interaction with the other participants. I definitely recommend this course for anyone who would like to start or improve a blog. Thank you again Sudi for this amazing time.
