LONDON CALLIGRAPHY TESTIMONIALS
Thanks so much for Saturday. The whole experience from the moment I arrived was an absolute delight. I was a tad nervous about coming, but I felt so relaxed throughout the workshop. I haven’t stopped talking to people about it since. You might even gain a few extra students.
You’ll be pleased to know that I’ve been practising and I’ve run out of the paper you provided, so I’ve ordered a couple of Rhodia pads, some ink and some extra nibs.
I’m hoping I can persuade my wife to let me attend an improvers course later this year. In the meantime I’ll be practising my alphabets and playing with some words.
Thanks again for such a wonderful morning, and for your kindness and patience.
I’m so looking forward to practicing in the hopes of registering for an Improvers session in the Autumn.
It was a great event, a lovely evening and everything was wonderfully prepared and the atmosphere there really comfortable! Now I have to exercise... Thank you dear Katie. I hope, I meet you soon again ?'
'Fantastic class. Katie is so patient, and a very good teacher. The two hours will fly by!'
'Katie's Beginners Workshop was brilliant. It is perfect for anybody who wants to learn from scratch how to write beautiful Calligraphy. The classes are small, friendly and relaxed, with lots of one-to-one tuition from Katie. A really well put together, instructive and fun class.'
'I would thoroughly recommend Katie's workshops for calligraphy. The class was in a beautiful setting at Wiltons Music Hall. We were provided with ink, nib and pen, paper and a pack of calligraphy guidelines to help us throughout the class - all of which you can take home to practice. Katie is so patient and her teaching style is very interactive, helping you with any tricky letters, offering easier alternatives. She a wealth of knowledge for suppliers, types of paper, ink, etc. - no question is too great!'
'I thoroughly enjoyed the class!! I have done a lot of different classes over the years and this was my absolute hands down favourite. It has given me a hobby that I can practice & I shall really enjoy.
'Everything about this workshop has a professional touch. From the beautiful venue Wilton Music Hall to the exceptional quality of the workshop. Katie is a brilliant calligrapher and tutor.'
'A well organised and beautifully presented class! Katie thought of every detail down from the venue to host it in, the refreshments and even the small personalised details. I was a complete beginner but the tutorial was easy to get through, great guides to work with and Katie was on hand to assist as needed. At the end she also kindly took requests to write out any particular words we wanted to practice. Highly recommend, for the price i was pleasantly surprised by the amount we got out of it!
'It was a lovely relaxed setting for a class and I thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon. All the handouts are very helpful and useful for practice. I loved Katie's attention to detail, and the fresh rose is a very personal touch, I enjoyed it in a single stem vase for many days after the course.
I need to practice my hand now, and when I feel I have improved I will definitely book another session.'
'I attended a Christmas Modern Calligraphy evening with Katie and came away learning some new skills and tips. She is a wonderful instructor - so skilled in her craft and such an engaging instructor. Thank you, Katie!'
'Thoroughly enjoyed my evening with Katie and the other budding calligraphers. Katie is an excellent teacher offering lots of 1-2-1 help and advice - i can't wait to get practising. Lots of lovely refreshments & cake to keep you going during the session. Highly recommend!'
'This is a great choice for anyone wanting to pick up a pen and nib to create writing they never thought they were capable of ! Katie is lovely person with a gentle, calm manner full of compliments and support. She's a professional who likes to share her talent. I felt such a great sense of achievement when we all reluctantly ended our class. Came away with a nice little kit to practice and some new friends!'
'Absolutely loved this class!
Katie gave clear instructions and simple worksheets to help build us up to writing words. The class size meant she was also able to give individual attention and she was also a super nice person! I left feeling confident and really excited to go home and keep practicing :)'
'I keep coming back to how much value for money the class was. From the
'I came away completely relaxed and really inspired to go home and keep practicing! I wanted to stay all day! I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Katie's London Calligraphy classes to anyone wanting the best tuition in a beautiful atmosphere.'
I am converted to calligraphy and a complete Katie fan !
The entire experience was professional and enjoyable, delivered in a very engaging way.
Your empathy with the class was outstanding.
I will be checking out your site for future dates and most likely doing the beginners one for a second time, mainly because I enjoyed so much!
Our paths will definitely cross again soon.
I had such a lovely time at the Beginner’s course on Saturday! I’m keen to continue my practice during my maternity leave and I’d love to create beautiful envelopes to send cards in, in particular.
'A fantastic class that I couldn't recommend more! Katie is a wonderful teacher and the setting (from location to class size) was perfect. We learned the basics of modern calligraphy and had enough time to practise everything, so you can easily take your calligraphy skills to the next level at home. I loved every bit of this class and really appreciate not only Katie's teaching style, but also the attention to detail that she put into the class and the preparation (a calligraphy pen and ink for every student, a handwritten card with our names on it, a rose on each desk, etc.). I highly recommend this class to everyone who wants to learn calligraphy.'
'Really excellent. In just two hours I learned so much about calligraphy and as a side effect, Katie's fabulous workshop even helped me improve my handwriting!.'
'Loved this workshop, so beautifully done and an great teacher.'
'Wish I could rate this more than 5 stars! Improvers workshop with Katie was the most pleasant and amazing experience I ever had. Absolutely loved her way of teaching and the passion she put into her job. I would highly recommend her workshops if you are ever interested to learn calligraphy!'
'This was an amazing class with an amazing teacher! Katie was so lovely and had a hands on approach. The set up and building was absolutely stunning. I enjoyed this class so much I’ve already booked myself in for the improvers class!'
'Katie's classes are great, she's super friendly and knowledgeable and the venue are always beautiful which makes the class feel really relaxed.'
'Fantastic workshop in a beautiful setting. Katie is lovely and helped me achieve so much in such a short space of time. I haven't been able to stop since I left the class. Will definitely try the improver's course.'
'I loved this course! Katie was very friendly and ran the session really well in an informative yet relaxed way. She was very knowledgeable and gave us all individual help. It was harder than i thought but Katie gave us all the confidence to complete the session. I came away feeling inspired and wanting to do more! The venue was just beautiful and perfect for an afternoon of calligraphy! Loved every minute of it and can highly recommend.'
'I can't think of a better way to spend a rainy Saturday afternoon! Katie is an excellent teacher, and made sure that we all had some one to one time with her throughout the class to go over anything we were struggling with. Not only was the class brilliant, but a personalised calligraphy set with pen, nib, ink, and worksheets is included in the price of the ticket (as is tea and cake!). It was lovely to learn something new, especially at such a beautiful venue. I’m going to enjoy practicing what we learned at home, and will definitely be back to another class!'
'I attended one of Katie's calligraphy workshops and can honestly say it was the best calligraphy workshop I have done. Katie is so friendly, helpful and very down to earth. The workshop was really informative and you get loads of work sheets to help you understand the letter forms and techniques of calligraphy.'
'A super course, short and intimate so you learn and experiment straight away. Katie is a great calligraphy teacher and you also get all the materials to take home so you can start practicing straight away. The course was at the beautiful Wilton's Music Hall so it was a lovely environment to learn a new skill in.'
'As a beginner at calligraphy, I couldn't wish for a better workshop! Katie is lovely and great at explaining and making sure to give feedback to each student. During the workshop, we learnt the basics of calligraphy in a relaxed environment. Katie provided everything for us, from calligraphy kit to coffee and cake! The choice of the place was great too; many colours to lift up the spirit. I would recommend Katie to anyone interested in trying calligraphy. It is worth every penny.'
'This is my first time taking a calligraphy course, it's something I have always wanted to do and I have to say this class was amazing. The setting of the course was beautiful, Katie had a small group which meant we had one to one experience with her throughout the class. The materials were provided and we also could keep so we could practice. We had practice sheets for strokes, letters and then to words. It was a very relaxed setting and Katie throughout the class gave us tips and support to see how we were progressing. We had refreshments available throughout the duration of the course. We were given a beautiful pack to take away which included, ink, pen holder, nib and practise sheets as well as a list of stockists and templates to practice. I would highly recommend this course. It's great to pick up a new skill and it's been a pleasure to practice at home and give everyone handmade notes!'
