How many people are in the group?
We always have from 4 to 8 people in groups, so that the teacher had time to work with everyone, and you finished things on the course program.
Do you need a sewing machine at home?
Not necessarily. You can sew everything in the program at school. Besides, we have a co-working space: you can always come and work with our machines.
