Level 1 and Level 2 Floristry
How many years have you been teaching?
I have been teaching at Merrist Wood College for 20 years, training florists and delivering short leisure courses and workshops.
What do you enjoy about teaching adults?
Activate Learning learners are a pleasure to teach, they are enthusiastic, interested in the subject area and keen to learn. This makes the sessions fun and enjoyable which is a great way to learn.
What got you into floristry?
Love of flowers, love of colours. I enjoy being creative and passing my enthusiasm onto others.
What other passions do you have?
Flowers are still my passion, as is colour. I enjoy my garden and being able to create something beautiful from what I have grown and bringing it indoors — makes you feel good!
Why should someone join your classes?
If you love flowers and want to have fun learning and creating beautiful things with natural materials — challenge yourself a little bit!
