Meet Your Tutor

Hello! I am Rachel and I am passionate about introducing carpentry to both beginners and people wanting to improve their woodworking skills.
My classes are taught in a patient and friendly way as I am committed to creating a supportive learning environment where everyone feels comfortable exploring their creativity. Whether you are new to woodworking or looking to refine your abilities, I make sure each student progresses at their own pace, mastering the fundamentals while discovering the joy of creating something with their own hands.
My own enthusiasm for woodwork started as a child where I was shown the tools by my dad in his workshop. My early memories are of creating projects together, and I’ve since gone on to work in furniture restoration, home improvements and van conversions.
Join the Carpentry with Confidence classes to learn how to use powertools and take the first step towards developing a lifelong skill that is as rewarding as it is practical.
