NEW!!!! Now Available
Internet Personal Tuition.
What does this mean?
It means that at my request you will download a free program. I then ring you to request that you start the program at your end. You then give me the information that I need to connect to you. I can then teach you via the Internet and talk to you by telephone at the same time, giving commands verbally and then I watch what you are doing on my monitor.
This is perfectly safe.
I can then show you by taking over your controls from my computer how to put things right.
This is perfectly safe. Did I mention that?
Tuition will be for 1 hour at a time. You pay for 1 hour at a time in advance and book ahead. Details about this bit will be here shortly. Still finalising this bit. Also if you are a Skype member calls to me and you are free and does not impede on the tution. Information given about this bit on request.
Oh yes, cost, well the cost is £5 per ½ hour, however, you will only be able to have 1 hour at any one time.
More time can be booked by sending me an email and paying in advance once I send you some dates and times.

Details of hotel used are located here. You do not have to stay here if you are local or within an hour's drive.
FOR THOSE STAYING AT THE HOTEL
You arrive Friday afternoon and book into hotel. You have dinner then I take everyone to a local craft shop for some retail therapy if anyone wants to go. I then bring everyone back again to the hotel.
We start class on Saturday morning at 9.30 after breakfast and finish the day at 5pm. After dinner at 6pm we then go to the craft shop again to do some general crafting then I take everyone back to the hotel again.
Class starts again at 9.30 on Sunday morning after breakfast and we break midway for coffee/biscuits before finishing at 2 pm. Lunch will then be served, then afterwards people say their goodbyes for the journey home.
If you are coming by train then I meet everyone at the railway station, either Middlesbrough, Darlington or Redcar Central depending on their circumstances and/or disabilities.
Whew, I feel worn out already
All in all I think you are getting a lot for you money, but if you think otherwise please feel free to shop around.
