How are private lessons personalized to my skill level?

A scheduled lesson might cover some things you already know (and everyone learns at their own pace).
A private session is geared to what you want to learn without feeling the pressure of having to accompany a room of other people.

Can I choose the projects I want to work on?

Of course! Whether you want help refashioning a dress or reading a pattern, just let me know what you would like to learn.

What sewing machines or materials do I need to have?

You do not need to have anything, I can provide you with these for the session.
However, if you have your own, you are more than welcome to bring them along to work with what you are already familiar with.

How long is each private lesson session?

That is up to you. The minimum is 1 hour.

Can lessons be scheduled flexibly around my availability?

Definitely! Just let me know and we can work together to arrange a suitable time.

Are private lessons available in-person, online, or both?

Currently I only offer lessons in person.

What happens if I need to reschedule or cancel a lesson?

Please let me know as soon as possible if you need to reschedule or cancel. Cancellations must be made at least 24 hours in advance, otherwise, the full lesson fee will apply.
I do understand that emergencies happen, so if something unexpected comes up, just reach out to bianca@beesilva.co.uk and we will work something out.

What payment options and packages are available?

Private lessons aren’t available for direct purchase through the site.
If you are interested, please contact me directly to discuss your goals and availability.

Do you offer lessons for kids or group lessons?

Yes, definitely! For more information, get in touch at bianca@beesilva.co.uk .
