​Teaching approach
​
As a qualified teacher with over 15 years of teaching experience, Sarah's specialism as a craft teacher is in her ability to offer different teaching styles to make learning accessible for everyone. Her unique approach is based on firstly ensuring her students feel comfortable; creating a calm and relaxed atmosphere, where enough time is allocated to answer questions, understand processes, and for plenty of short breaks to aid concentration. Sarah's workshops have been carefully planned so that the techniques taught can be adapted to the needs of each learner in the class.
As well as going away with something made by your own hands, Sarah hopes you also go away with a sense of achievement and a sense of connection to other people, having spent time absorbed in the process together.
​
As one participant wrote: " I really appreciated the calm atmosphere and the methodical non-judgmental way you imparted your wisdom. It really was a wonderful experience and it’s given me encouragement to continue with this new thing in my life. I really do hope I see you again!"

Your tutor
​
After studying a Fine Art degree in Canterbury, Sarah trained to become a primary school teacher, spending six rewarding years working in a rural village school. She then went on to train and work as Waldorf Steiner teacher for 5 years, where she taught older children and teenagers, specialising in teaching art and craft.
Since returning to her artistic roots, Sarah has trained with various basketmakers, and completed a City and Guilds in basketry in 2022. In 2023, Sarah received a QEST Emerging Maker Award , allowing her to complete one-to-one tuition with master basketmaker Jenny Crisp over 2 years.​​
