  • 5/5 from Elena Huntley, attended Sep 2026: Had an absolutely fab time on this workshop! I had 1:1 instruction and lots of hands-on help with my first 2 throws before having some free exploration time for my other 2! I’ve chosen a pot for firing and glazing that is going to be done for me. Lovely, supportive environment and learned so much. Highly recommend!
  • 5/5 from Joanne Stephens, attended Sep 2026: Excellent class, l Suzan was wonderful as well as the other ladies. We had a really fun afternoon for my mums 70th, even my brother who never usually gets involved loved it, and was particularly good to be fair.. Hoping to try make some evening classes we all enjoyed it that much.
  • 5/5 from Kate Smith, attended Aug 2026: A really fun activity that was also very relaxing. Amanda was an excellent teacher, she explained things well and when I couldn’t quite grasp a technique she showed me another way. You get a real sense of achievement and everyone saw how we improved from the first to last pot. After a clear demonstration you get numerous attempts at creating your own pots. It has made me want to do more. I definitely recommend - ideal for doing by yourself or with friends.

We then the hard selection of just picking one each to glaze and fire and we collect them in a couple of weeks time!

  • 5/5 from Tina Pawlik, attended Nov 2025: Absolutely loved this class. Suzan was an excellent teacher, very clear with her instructions as well as patient and attentive. I loved the nature of the class - you are shown a demonstration and then just get on with it. It's an open environment so you can ask questions along the way. In the space of 2 hours I was able to make 4 pieces of work (with varying degrees of success) and was able to pick the best one to be fired and glazed. It was really enjoyable and I would definitely do this again.

Highly recommend the class for anyone interested in pottery.

  • 5/5 from Savannah Jada, attended Sep 2025: I really enjoyed this class. I have noticed that sometimes I can find lots of information and instruction overwhelming at times when it’s in quick succession but Suzan was there with me every step of the way thereafter. She made the environment feel welcoming and understood what I needed when I needed it. I am so happy with the class I definitely would love to return and do a course soon. This is a hobby I definitely want to exercise know that Suzan has equipped me with the tools to move forward confidently.

  • 5/5 from Millie Faulkner, attended Jul 2025: Really nice class. Very relaxing atmosphere. Suzan is really lovely, everything was clear and she made it feel so easy! She gave a short demo and then let me crack on. Always right there if I needed help but not overpowering, letting me get to know the craft and material in my own way. Constantly replenshied my clay so I could try and try again, until the 2 hours was up and I could pick the best one from the bunch! Definately reccomend! I got this as a gift card- which was really nice because it was planned and paid for for me but meant I could book it whenever suited me.

  • 5/5 from Trevor Lloyd, attended May 2025: A birthday gift for my partner who loves the Great British Pottery Throw Down. Beginner's class for 2 SO I went too! What a super 2hours. Friendly, clear and timely teaching in demonstration and guidance but also given freedom to explore. We want to do more. Highly recommended. We collect our pots in 3-4weeks.
  • 5/5 from Rachel Ferguson, attended Apr 2025: Was given a gift voucher for this class and was super easy to redeem. Had an amazing time. Really great one on one teaching and super relaxed environment.
  • 5/5 from Justine Souabe, attended Apr 2025: Great workshop! Suzan was very patient and kind with me and I am delighted with what I made. Very nice atmosphere, will definitely come back

  • 5/5 from Robert Ludlam, attended Apr 2025: Excellent session, Susan was a great teacher, really explained and demonstrated how to throw a pot and I made 4- so pleased. A great result, gift card worked well with reminder prompts and clear details for how, when and where.
  • 5/5 from Agnieszka Gesler, attended Mar 2025: Suzana was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and professional! She explained everything so clearly, making it easy to follow along. We had so much fun during the class, and I highly recommend booking a session with a friend or partner. It’s a fantastic experience! Can’t wait to receive our very first creations!
  • 5/5 from Helena Smith, attended Mar 2025: Susan was an amazing teacher and was great at judging when to lend a helping hand. She was also very patient. I made 4 pots and gained in confidence with each one. I would recommend this course and can't wait to receive my fired and glazed pot.
  • 5/5 from Michael Lion, attended Mar 2025: Myself and my partner really enjoyed the class. We were first shown how to make an item and the different techniques and then guided through our first item. We were then able to make a further couple of items more on our own but could ask for any help we needed. Suzan was very friendly and knowledgeable.
  • 5/5 from Mandy Pratt, attended Mar 2025: Really enjoyed this class. The facilities were great and the instructions were really simple and made it easy to enjoy creating a few different pots to choose from.
  • 5/5 from Dora Housham, attended Feb 2025: We had a fab time at Suzan’s pottery class! It was the perfect balance of being taught and working independently so we had a real sense of achievement at the end. Suzan was kind and relaxed, the two hours flew by! Very excited to collect our glazed pots
  • 5/5 from Alex Grafen, attended Feb 2025: We made 3 bowls each. The teacher, Suzan, was supportive and helpful, demonstrating the making of one first, and articulating the different steps really clearly. We then took over the wheels with Suzan continuing to offer valuable instruction while giving us space to experiment and helping us recover if those experiments went slightly askew. Highly recommend!
  • 5/5 from Jennifer A O Robert, attended Jan 2025: We had a wonderful time doing the beginner's pottery class for my partner's birthday! Suzan was very friendly and lovely, she was very patient with us when showing us how to initially use the wheel. The two hour slot was enough time for us to make four different pieces, highly recommend her class to anyone who doesn't know how to do pottery!
  • 5/5 from James Mack, attended Jan 2025: Fantastic class. Suzan was very helpful and knowledgeable. Relaxing environment and was able to make four pots!
  • 5/5 from Kim Newland, attended Jan 2025: It was a great class, good instruction, really friendly and we both managed to make three pots! Chose out favourite to have fired and glazed with a choice of glazes too. Thanks Suzan for a great class
  • 5/5 from Lizzie Thomson, attended Jan 2025: We had a fantastic time in our class with Susan. She was warm and accommodating and made us both feel incredible chill about it being our first time. She explained everything clearly and then left us to try new things. Can’t recommend this class enough, we have both found a new hobby from it.
  • 5/5 from Chloe Garlinge, attended Jan 2025: We had a lovely time, it had the perfect balance of instruction and experimenting yourself. Suzan was very helpful and had lots of knowledge to share, making us feel so comfortable. We had the best time and would definitely recommend!
  • 5/5 from Effy de Wilde, attended Dec 2024: Great class! Suzan is an amazing teacher. She provided enough guidance but also gave us the opportunity to try it by ourselves and make mistakes (and correct them). It was lovely having a private class with just the two of us - we learned a lot. I can't wait to see the end result!
  • 5/5 from Mark Wyatt, attended Nov 2024: Great class, very fun :)
  • 5/5 from Anonymised ClassBento customer, attended Nov 2024: I really enjoyed the class. The teacher was great, gave a lot of tips and guided me through the process. I would definitely recommend it!

Suzan fell in love with clay in her early teens in Turkey but didn't have the chance to get her hands dirty until after she came to London and enrolled on a part-time course in 2004. After finishing her BTEC certification classes in Kensington and Chelsea college Suzan practised her pottery in a studio share in Kilburn.
In 2017 Suzan finally opened her own studio in Plaistow where she designs and creates all of her own work which is inspired by her mixed family background, travels and love for natural objects. Her homeware collection offers a handcrafted alternative to daily life otherwise filled with mass-produced items.
