In this course, students will learn through a combination of individual and group instruction. The tutor will provide guidance and teach skills based on the needs of each student. Students will have the opportunity to work on their own designs and jewellery pieces with support and guidance from the tutor. Advanced techniques will be introduced and explored, allowing students to expand their repertoire and experiment with new methods. The course encourages creativity and self-expression while providing the necessary technical skills to bring the designs to life.
