Frankie said: Oven looked new and smoked like a chimney. Teacher coped so well, rang reinforcements and still got us through the course in time. Excellent session and I am very confident that I can reproduce thes on my own.

Vilita said: I enjoyed the course and the tutor was good but I overall it was a very basic course and not great value for the money. The course was supposed to go for 3hrs but we finished in two hours, and we were only given materials for 3 beeswax wraps, which only took about 5mins each to make. We should have been given more fabric pieces to practise on as the material cost is very low, or otherwise the course cost and time should be reduced.

Liz said: Kirsty is an extremely knowledgeable and generous tutor with an engaging and inclusive style. I will highly recommend her and the Beeswax Wrap course. Also, I want to commend your college on the cleanliness and presentation of your facilities. I also attend a language course at Sydney Uni and they could learn significantly from your college and how you do this well.
