Recent reviews of 6 Weeks Wheel Throwing Pottery Course
- 5/5 from Ayesha Hasan, attended Aug 2026: I did two beginner courses with Sharol and absolutely loved both. The space is lovely and the teaching and course structure means you see improvements really quickly. Thanks so much!
- 5/5 from Zoe, attended Aug 2026: Fantastic fun, great teaching and suitable for complete beginners like me, as well as people who have done a bit before and want to hone their skills. I was surprised by the variety of things people made: small pots, bowls, jugs, candlesticks, mugs, lemon squeezers and more. Definitely recommend.
- 5/5 from Federica Merlino, attended May 2026: Highly recommend the 6-weeks course! You will learn all the techniques and create as much as you can during the days. Izzy was amazing and super helpful at each stage of the process!
- 5/5 from Ayra Jamshad, attended May 2026: Tilly was a great teacher and the 6 week class was perfect to get comfortable with throwing and begin a wheel throwing journey! Really enjoyed it and would recommend
- 5/5 from Miss Julia Geens, attended May 2026: Such a fab class and amazing teacher! Sharol was brilliant, I've done trial classes before but she had a great way of explaining everything and I had my clay centred in no time. Would highly recommend the trial class and the 6 week course. Great to be able to walk away with some pieces made, trimmed and glazed by your own hands!
- 5/5 from Rosalie Mamo, attended May 2026: Great class, I feel much more confident with throwing and am very happy with the several outcomes of this class!
- 5/5 from Ayesha Hasan, attended May 2026: This course was fantastic and our teacher Sharol was amazing throughout - she explains things really clearly and is super encouraging!
- 5/5 from Anita Eyeson, attended Apr 2026: Great course! Tilly was a great teacher - patient and attentive to all students. I really enjoyed the 6 weeks and we covered everything from throwing to glazing. Would definitely recommend
- 5/5 from Taylor, attended Mar 2026: This class was a brilliant investment in joy :) I got to make 10 beautiful pieces that I never would have dreamed of making before this class. We were also taught how to trim them and glaze them all sorts of colours. It felt like time and money well spent, and I really enjoyed my 6 weeks of learning -- thank you to our instructor, Sharol!
- 5/5 from Fiona Ly, attended Mar 2026: Sharol was an incredibly supportive and kind teacher. The studio is an amazing space and loved coming to these lessons every week! Would 100% recommend:)))
- 5/5 from Samuel Price, attended Mar 2026: Fabulous experience, the tutors really know their stuff, incredibly informative whilst keeping the whole experience relaxed.
- 5/5 from Charlotte Stoddart, attended Mar 2026: I loved the course. Sharol was a fantastic teacher, I feel like I learnt a lot and am really keen to keep going and try more wheel thrown pottery! Can't wait to become a member! I highly recommend the course to anyone that wants to try pottery. Everyone at the studio was very welcoming. Really close to London Bridge station too, only a few minutes walk away!
- 5/5 from Lynn, attended Feb 2026: Great class! The clay throwing is super fun (super messy though :)) The teacher is really nice friendly and helpful. Lots of time to practice and get creative with the clay.
- 5/5 from Yordan, attended Feb 2026: Safe to say this class is amazingly worth doing. I went into it not knowing anything about the process and came out with a good idea of how things work from start to finish and how to grow and learn from there independently. "Can I help anyone" Tilly was a fantastic teacher and really took her time to explain things. She was super resourceful when it came to fixing stuff that you thought was beyond saving and accommodating anyone's weird pottery visions. Would recommend to anyone, thanks to everyone who made it possible!
- 5/5 from Katie McFadden, attended Feb 2026: The beginners pottery course with Tilly was brilliant. She was a very patient teacher and really supportive. She took us through everything step by step and even I was able to make some beautiful things by the end of the course! 100% would recommend the course in general, and Tilly in particular. Would love to come back.
- 5/5 from Amanda Ip, attended Jan 2026: Great class from start to finish. The class was just the right size, and Milo was a very patient teacher and easy going character. I was a total beginner, and the pace of the class was just right. The pieces made each class really shows the progress made. I enjoyed every minute of it and would highly recommend it!
- 5/5 from Kristina L, attended Dec 2021: I really enjoyed the 6 weeks ceramics course and getting to try out various techniques how to create something out of clay. I liked an element of surprise in the end when trying to find my pieces after glazing, as the colours turn out completely different than expected! Furthermore I discovered a lot of new music while being on course and had fun and got inspiration from all in the group. If you are in doubt, just sign up and give it a go!:-)
- 5/5 from Carina Putz, attended Sep 2020: Fantastic in every sense. Perfect teaching skills and the class in general is just so much fun. Highly recommended.
