I recently completed a series of 10 beginner pottery classes at Oxart Taradale, and it has been an incredibly rewarding experience. I came out with beautiful cups, plates, and a jug for my kitchen! The classes are led by Ian, a truly passionate and dedicated teacher. Ian takes the time to explain each technique thoroughly, ensuring that every student understands the process. His patience and enthusiasm are infectious; he always encourages creativity and experimentation and says that practice makes it better! Whether it's hand-building or wheel-throwing, Ian's detailed guidance makes the learning process enjoyable and engaging. The studio itself is well-equipped and provides a welcoming atmosphere for beginners and seasoned potters alike. The community of fellow students is friendly and supportive, making the classes not only educational but also a great social experience. Overall, I highly recommend Oxart Taradale's Pottery Classes to anyone interested in exploring the art of pottery. With Ian's expert instruction and the warm, encouraging environment, you'll find yourself looking forward to each session and discovering your inner artist! Thank you, Ian, for making this journey so enjoyable and enriching!
