Private Pottery Lesson for One

Private Pottery Taster Class

Emily Alder 

I learnt how to make different style pots, and tailored them to my preference! I learnt the basic steps, and then learnt various techniques such as shape and design. Candy was informative, kind and helpful. She made me feel at ease and the 1:1 class was definitely helpful. The venue was quirky and cosy, we absolutely loved the area we was in! I would definitely recommend to any friends / family and had great fun!

Candy is a great teacher. Very patient with me as am a novice potter. I had lots of fun exploring the techniques of handling the clay and working it on the potter's wheel.  Would more private lessons her studio.
Looking forward in collecting my jug and dish that I made.

Learn the basics of using the pottery wheel in a one to one lesson in Candy’s private pottery studio!

Candy’s pottery classes are taught within the eclectic Nightingales Emporium, located just opposite Hornsey station.

After finishing her degree in Ceramic Design at Central Saint Martins, Candy  was keen to pass on her learnt skills to others. Around teaching, Candy also makes her own work which is focused on the female form and explores representing this in the medium of clay. 

Candy has worked with a wide range of students from young children, people with learning disabilities, mature students and people living with dementia. Candy’s teaching style is tailored to the individuals needs, in a relaxed and friendly environment. 

With both group sessions and one to one sessions available, you are sure to find a class to suit you.
