OUR LIVE TESTIMONIALS
Completed our Shoe Design Course
I had an amazing experience. My teacher was always patient, always willing to guide us, make time for our questions and taught in a way that was always clear, while making the lesson as easy to understand as possible. Would recommend the school to anyone looking to kickstart a career or just to entertain their interests in footwear design.
Completed our Shoe Design Course
Thank you Athena and Sheena . You 2 are amazing . I learnt to make a pair from absolutely nothing and with minimal equipment . Leaving the course with shoes that you can actually wear . I cannot wait to do the handbag practicals .
Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Completed Our Campus Shoe Design Course
When I started this course, I had no knowledge of shoe/bag design and making. This was a very good experience. I was intimidated at first but with patience and guidance I got the hang of it. Athena is very hands on and understanding but also gives space for individual expression. A 5/5 experience
