Peter Booker reviewed: Introduction to traditional stained glass (1 day) in Sheffield, South Yorkshire

"I attended Martins course in traditional stained glass making recently along with 7 colleagues associated with our local wood carving club. We were in for a treat, the course was extremely well organised and every every step of the way was explained in a simple and informative style. Martin spent time with each student to ensure that they understood and could carry out the processes safely and easily. We all went home with our personal project and it was unanimously declared a very successful, interesting and happy experience. Martin is a very competent tutor with a great sense of humour and I would thoroughly recommend anyone to try one of his courses."

Martin McAssey Glass responded:

"It was a pleasure to teach your group, I hope to see to all again. Thank you for the great review. "

Karen reviewed: Stained glass weekly classes in Sheffield (South Yorkshire)

"Just finished my 5th term and thoroughly enjoying every class. Martin is a very approachable teacher - checking in with everybody throughout the class to make sure we are not going off track! He is always happy to answer questions and help/advise as needed. It’s great to be able to make our own designs in either stained glass or tiffany glass - and seeing what everyone else is doing is inspirational. The studio is always well stocked with wonderful glass to purchase. Thanks Martin - looking forward to next term already!"

Martin McAssey Glass responded:

"So glad you are enjoying the course, thank you for the great review."

"A really enjoyable day! Martin is a great teacher and adapts his teaching to people’s experience. For those like myself with experience of working with glass, Martin was happy to allow us to create our own designs and advised as and when needed. For those with little or no experience he performed demonstrations and provided step by step clear guidance. Lots of lovely glass and bits and pieces to choose from to decorate with. Everyone, however experienced, made lots of decorations and had a really great day. Thanks Martin - will be booking on some more courses for sure!"

Martin McAssey Glass responded:

"Thank you for the lovely review, I'm really glad you enjoyed the day."

Jennifer Wedgwood reviewed: Stained glass weekly classes in Sheffield (South Yorkshire)

"Martin and Kate are great tutors- always on hand to offer practical help and advice and to ensure you improve week by week. The classes are mixed experience so beginners like me get inspiration and motivation from others. The first projects are very well structured to learn the basics, but then you have a lot of freedom to decide where you will go next. Warm, friendly, creative and a real escape."

Martin McAssey Glass responded:

"Thank you for the lovely review, we look forward to seeing yo again for the April term."

"I have been attending these courses for about 10 years, Martin and Kate are excellent tutors. The classes are friendly and very supportive. All materials for first pieces are provided, after that Martin carries a wide range of glass and tools at good prices. Classes are so popular now that you have to book on months in advance, if a place is available take it, highly recommended."

Juliet reviewed: Fused glass Christmas decorations (1 day) in Sheffield, South Yorkshire

"A wonderfully productive day which I would thoroughly recommend. As a beginner excellent instruction, guidance and advice was given during the day whilst I was able to work at my own pace. Martin gives clear precise instructions in a very well organised workshop with everything you need on hand. Martin is incredibly patient being prepared to repeat demonstrations as many times as needed. I was amazed at the items I was able to make during the day and look forward to returning to do another course."

Keith Bradbury reviewed: Tiffany stained glass wild flowers workshop

"Enjoyable day making stained glass flowers . Kate had time for every individual as well as the group with help, advice and ideas. The day was well structured with Kate demonstrating tasks and methods then allowing time for completion by the group before the next process was explained. I would highly recommend this course for both those who have no experience of glass work and those who have some. Following this course I will be making more Tiffany flower pieces, the variety is only limited by one’s imagination. "

Martin McAssey Glass responded:

"Thank you for the lovely review."
