Alex was recommended to me by the amazing Anna Mercedes Wear. I was looking for an inspirational tutor who would have the skill and patience to teach someone with my complete lack of natural ability.

Alex Shimwell is a highly skilled studio potter and dedicated teacher. I can't recommend highly enough. If you are serious about learning to throw on the wheel - book onto one of his classes asap!

Alex is a great teacher and very skilled at what he does. If you want to learn how to create pots on the wheel definitely give his classes a go!

All I can say is doing a pottery class with Alex is the perfect way to destress. And Alex is a great teacher - what he doesn't know....every question my class asked he had a full answer. His technical knowledge is second to none - I thought he'd studied chemistry, rather than ceramics! However, he is clearly talented and makes fabulous pots. Other than that he's fun, refreshingly honest and also supportive to help you improve. I'm looking forward to booking my next set of sessions.

Alex is a brilliant ceramic tutor, totally inspiring, I did a beginners course with him, we all really enjoyed his lessons, he always brought out the best in us all. I managed to create things, I never dreamt was possible and it opened up a whole load of new opportunities, I cannot thank him enough.
