The individual tuition we offer is mainly aimed at artists or designers who work in another discipline, or for those that want to learn specific aspects of ceramics. Its also ideal for those who want to set up their own studio practice, particularly if you would like to make the transition from hobbyist to professional. We can work with other creative educators who would like some tailored learning to pass on skills to their own students. It is usually a more intensive learning experience than the group courses, and is tailored around you.

Both of us have a variety of experience in ceramic practice accumulated over 2 decades, and can help you improve your skills and knowledge (and confidence). Choose to focus on different kinds of handbuilding such as coilbuilding and slab construction, wheelthrowing, and the ceramic surface- slips, monoprinting, glazing and other techniques. You may wish to learn about firing, making glazes or applying decals. We can help you gain enough knowledge to set up your own small studio practice; learning about the practical aspects such as recycling your clay, advice on what equipment/tools to buy etc. Please note: due the way our workspace is laid out we no longer offer tuition in mouldmaking or slip casting.

We have just made a few changes to how we schedule tuition- as our schedule is increasingly busy we are now offering specific time/date slots of two hours which be booked directly on the courses page or at this link https://buytickets.at/cyanclayworkscic/1525738

We will add to the dates at intervals.

Tuition can be a one off session of a couple of hours, or over several sessions depending on what we are focusing on. Materials, tuition, preparation and use of tools and equipment are included, and glazing/finishing for one off sessions. Before booking tuition, please get in touch and we can either arrange a visit to the studio (we don’t charge for this) or can discuss via email/phone. We can then chat over your project to create a plan and a timeline, and get an idea of your aims and focus.

A Two hour session is £70.
