I love teaching! I have taught both beginners and potters that have been making for many years, both across Canada and Internationally. I present lively courses that challenge the participants to look at their work in many new ways. As well as demonstrating my working methods that I have developed over the years , I will also happily discuss the challenges of marketing and making a living as a potter. I will also help you examine your own work with new eyes and give you new methods with which to challenge yourself when you are needing some fresh ideas.

The many notes and comments I have received after teaching are always very enthusiastic and I have been invited back by many groups two and three times. 

"Carol-Ann creates a fluid atmosphere of fun and absolute joy of potting."

"A contemporary approach and personal reflections that continually inspired over the five days."

"Excellent teacher - inspiring and thought provoking, stimulating - got us thinking outside the box!"
