What students say about the classes.

 John L. Tennessee, USA -
Wow, what a class! For those looking to find the "missing dots" that seem to dog you, this course nails it. The material covers all the bases and more. Plenty of intro to materials, glazing methods and trouble shooting. I especially appreciated the "Improving the usability of glazes" as it relates to brushing on glazes. I recommend the course to anyone who wants to get a handle on how glazes work, why and don't want to be a physics student to understand.
