What Amelia’s students have said……

helenmancey I had an amazing time, so inspired to do more. Amelia is a fantastic teacher ! We all achieved so much in a short space of time. Thank you Amelia ❤️❤️❤️

lady_magpie2 Aw what a fabulous way to spend Sunday morning! I thoroughly enjoyed this session, I had no idea of what kintsugi is, so this was a great taster session to discover it. I highly recommend giving this a go. Amelia is a fantastic tutor, very welcoming and friendly. I'm already looking forward to her return to the Beacon at Whitehaven ?
