London School of Mosaic

I was keen to learn more about smalti mosaics. This course was informative and I was able to use a hammer and hardie. The materials/tools and facilities were of a good standard and refreshments were provided throughout the course. Instruction was of a high standard and the trainer was friendly and approachable. I would recommend this course for anyone with an interest in mosaics and a desire to learn and improve. 10/10

Fabulous course with excellent individual support and guidance. Sylvie, the tutor, is very patient, flexible and always ready to provide help and advice when required. The studio has an abundance of materials and you will be given loads of inspiration to help you produce your work.

The teachers were very professional and patient. I det decided to make a portrait in mosaic from a photograph I had taken and the result was amazing all credit to the guiduidance of the tutor which made all the difference The group working was very beneficial too and all staff welcoming and friendly. The venue with display of amazing mosaics makes it very conducive to learning and being creative

Small, friendly group and knowledgable tutor who was able to bring out the best from each student whatever their previous experience. I was already familiar with the direct method so it was interesting to try indirect method. On balance I prefer direct but the tips and techniques I learned are useful for both and the mosaics I make at home have improved as a result of what I learned.

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

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

Excellent teaching and great to have everything supplied.

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.

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.

Amazing teacher! Creative, passionate and inspiring.

Tutor was passionate and enabled all students to complete their project. Plenty of equipment and choice of materials. My experience certainly made me want to go back for more! I had a really enjoyable day, a very socialable group with lots if giggles as well as the hard work concentrating! In n our break I chatted to students on another class and If I lived in London I would certainly have looked into doing a diploma. The school has a great ethos, very engaged with local community and happy that by attending a course with them it helps support this work.

The course was excellent. I had never done any mosaic work before but after this course I love it and would like to do more. The teacher was superb - friendly, helpful and encouraging. I’d come again in a flash.

Absolutely amazing experience. The teacher was very knowledgeable, helpful and very creative. The venue was ideal.

Very good but advertised as an abstract course with an instruction to come with a 30 x 30 cm design to make which Debbie the tutor was unaware of.

This was a fantastic course- I learned so much and it was really fun. Students were encouraged to be adventurous.

Tamara's course was very enjoyable. I'm glad there were only a few of us on the weekend as there wouldn't have been space for more students and the queue for the hot wire would have been longer. Tamara was very energetic and enthusiastic about her subject and obviously knowledgeable. Maybe a little more planning and the suggestion to make smaller pieces would have led to shorter days; if Tamara had insisted we finished at 5pm, as she would have been entitled to do, we'd never have got our pieces finished. Having the cafe open would have been good.

Excellent course. We learn how to translate our project in 3D. Tamara, our tutor, is very knowledgeable and has a lot of experience and she successfully managed to teach us how to produce the sculptures even we haven't done that before. The tools provided as well as the facilities were adequate. I enjoyed the course very much.
