1 hour per week. Homework will depend on the topics we covered during classClass Experience
In this live class, your student will be given individualized one-on-one instruction. This tutoring class is for those who are beyond the basic sewing classes I currently offer here on Outschool. We will discuss more intermediate and advanced sewing topics and decide together what projects will be best to work on together to grow their knowledge and skills. Week one: review and get an understanding of knowledge and skill level to decide what the next step is Week two: begin a project or sample Week three: continue project or sample Week Four: finish project and review what was learned Students will have some work to do outside of class. This could include pattern or fabric preparation, completing an online assignment or an online quiz. During class I will teach them specific new skills and techniques related to projects by doing samples as well as helping direct their protects.

Teacher expertise and credentials
My passion for sewing goes hand in hand with teaching. Helping others learn the art of sewing either as a hobby or future career is my goal. I teach ages 7+ beginner classes, starting with threading a machine and building techniques to work toward sewing Independence through projects and samples. I have several private students who work on intermediate and advanced protects.
I previously taught high school sewing and fashion design for 7 years before stepping away to be a stay at home mom. I still love to share knowledge with others so teaching on Outschool has been a perfect fit
I believe people learn best through experience so my classes are project based. Each project has specific techniques that we will focus on mastering that can applied to future projects. Some projects require a prerequisite course to ensure specific knowledge is acquired for success.
A fun side note- Although I continue to teach, I also do custom clothing and alterations on the side. I've created fun costumes like Princess Peach and Princess Jasmine dresses and even a Zelda recreation!
