Private Sewing Tuition
Learn to sew with Christine's undivided attention — tailored entirely to you, your project and your pace. No group classes, no fixed syllabus. Just you, Christine and your sewing.
What is private tuition?
Private sewing tuition is a completely personalised learning experience — just you and Christine. You set the pace, choose the project and focus on exactly the skills you want to develop.
Christine demonstrates, guides and teaches — while you carry out the work. You leave each session with real, practical skills and a project that's genuinely yours.
Whether you're picking up a needle for the first time, working on a GCSE portfolio or exploring sewing for a business idea — Christine adapts every session entirely around you.
"Learn in a relaxed and creative environment with a professional tutor who is patient, passionate and genuinely invested in your progress." — Christine

What you'll learn
Every session is shaped around you — but here's what students typically develop during private tuition with Christine.
How to read, adapt and follow sewing patterns — and adjust garments to fit your body perfectly.
Understanding different fabric types, when to use them and how to get the very best from your tools and materials.
The professional finishing touches that elevate a garment from homemade to truly handcrafted.
Get the absolute best from your machine — tension, stitch selection, troubleshooting and basic maintenance.
Explore your individual creativity through fashion flair and design thinking — from initial concept through to a finished garment that reflects your own style and vision. This is where sewing becomes self-expression.
Christine regularly writes about the journeys of her private tuition students — from first-time sewers finding their confidence to GCSE students achieving outstanding portfolio results. Their stories are the best testament to what one-to-one tuition can do.
