I really enjoyed the sewing teacher training course by Made My Wardrobe. I learned sooo much and now I know how to start my journey to become a sewing teacher. Lots of question were answered which I didn't even think about. The ideas of the other workshop participants were so inspiring. The online learning was perfect, because I live in Austria. It was such a lovely setting. I would like to recommend the workshop to anyone who wants to teach creative workshops.

I have found the Sewing Teacher Training Course offered by Lydia and Made My Wardrobe to be excellent. It was informative and just the right side of demanding, pushing me to take action on things I have been putting off for ages. It has given me the confidence to pursue becoming a sewing teacher, either with other people, or by running my own workshops. The webinars were extremely practical and information was shared with openness, which meant it was inspiring whilst also being based very much in the real world.

I absolutely loved the Made My Wardrobe Sewing Teacher Training. It gave me such a confidence boost and made me realise that I actually could teach. I really liked the way each lesson was structured, with a fantastic presentation, loads of Lydia’s personal experiences and top tips thrown in, and plenty of time for questions. The homework was fun and very useful and the feedback and sessions reviewing homework were invaluable. I was actually slightly bereft when the training ended! I’d wholeheartedly recommend this training to anybody wondering if they might like to give sewing teaching a go. Thank you, MMW team!
