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

"I loved this Christmas course. I made personal decorations for my family plus I played around with different ideas I had myself. The course gives simple instructions and practice of various cutting techniques. Martin is very friendly checking in to make sure you understand what you are doing and gives constructive feedback so you can change and develop ideas. It was also nice to see some of his current work this time showing what is possible with glass crafts."

"Clear tuition giving lots of cutting techniques & frequent support. Huge range of glass products to personalise your items or you could follow his demonstration pieces exactly. It was an enjoyable, busy, focused day which passed too quickly. I made 11 decorations but you could make however many you had time for."

"I attended this course after receiving it as a present. The Christmas crafts were really fun to make and Martin explained how to make each item in stages so that you could have a go in your own time. It was something I’d really wanted to have a go at and I would book another course in the future. The day went so quickly and Martin gave assistance at any point, with lots of encouragement"

"We joined the Introduction to Fused Glass course and had a great time. Martin provided clear guidance in a friendly and relaxed environment with a well equipped workshop and lots of materials to chose from. We had some ideas of what to make but Martin also provided ideas and advice so that we completed the session with a number of items and a lot of learning. We definitely recommend this course if you want to try making some items and learning what is involved."

"It was a really enjoyable day, and Martin was happy to allow my 13 year old grand daughter to come also. We both really loved the day. It is very well organised, and Martin is welcoming, most pleasant and an excellent teacher. We hope to come again. We found the whole day relaxing, and a wonderful opportunity to bring out the creative side in us both! Thank you, Martin."

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

"I really enjoyed the workshop. I would highly recommend, Kate and the course, if like me you have always fancied trying this. We were provided with all the tools and plenty of materials to complete a piece of art and Kate's knowledge, teaching and patience was excellent. My thanks to my fellow students and Kate in staying until we all had all completed our work. I'm so pleased and proud of the panel I (with Kate's help) created. I so wish I was able to attend the weekly sessions."

"I thoroughly enjoyed my day. Kate did a fab job of of teaching, I loved learning new skills in a lovely calm atmosphere. Our fellow tealighters were a delight too, its so nice to meet new people. As a beginner I didn't expect to produce something as lovely as my tiffany tea light holder, I only did this with the help and encouragement from Kate. Would certainly recommend this workshop, Its a great day out."

"Fused Glass One Day Workshop: Loved every minute of it!! Had previously attended a one day workshop and produced a beautiful piece with the lovely Kate. It was nice to meet Martin this time who was just as lovely. Both very welcoming and very quickly made me feel at ease. I was thrilled with the pieces I made and can't wait to see how they look once they have been fired. Excited :-) !!! Thank you for such an enjoyable day, can't wait to do another *****"

"What a great day, Martin made us all feel very welcome. He gave us all great instruction and with his guidance we were able to produce some lovely pieces of work. The day was full on and good value. Can't wait to collect my work. This is the second workshop I have attended with Martin McAssey Glass, the first was the Traditional Leaded Stained Glass workshop, which was equally great. I'm hoping to book the Tiffney Glass next year. Highly recommended."

Heather reviewed: Introduction to fused glass (1 day) in Sheffield, South Yorkshire

"This course is energising , fun and immersive, a complete detox after a hard week at work, thank you. Martin structures the day well with demonstrations then lets you get on with it, advising when asked for. As a complete novice and not being particularly arty, he was reassuring and I was delighted with what I managed to complete and inspired with ideas for another workshop. Looking forward to seeing them after they've been fired."

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

"Great class. Martin is very helpful. He builds your confidence with one of his basic designs then lets you design/choose your next project. Excellent class and addictive. I have signed up for next term and have started buying equipment from Martin so that I can continue my project over the summer."

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

"I joined the group feeling very nervous, but quickly felt at home. The class moves at your pace, learning all the basics and then allowing you to develop your skills while designing your own projects. Always supported by Martin who explains and demonstrates as many times as you need. I can’t believe how fast the time in classes flies and you realise how much you still have to learn. Beware it is addictive. Once you start you cannot stop"
