Jane Griffith reviewed: Calligraphy 'modern pointed pen cursive ' ( and many other scripts) ' zoom tuition - live online

"I attended my first session of pointed pen cursive (virtual) with Gaynor this morning. I enjoyed myself thoroughly but the hour went so quickly that I plan to have at least one subsequent session with her. Gaynor is patient and encouraging which is just what I needed. She is generous to answer questions and offer tips. She is very talented! It's so helpful to have the recording so I can review the information. It was a great experience!"

Gaynor Goffe responded:

"Many thanks for your positive review!!!!!!! I am always keen to help people on their calligraphy journey, and tuition is always very flexible to individual situations, and available from beginner to advanced in a variety of scripts and their many experimental variations."
