About Emma
I graduated from BA Fashion Design in Central Saint Martins, I work freelance on fashion brand project management, design consultancy and pattern-cutting, and I teach as well, I work on UAL and Central Saint Martins short courses as a tutor and I have a set of regular students for sewing, design, business or pattern-cutting tutorials. Before starting my own business, I worked 2 years in Luxury Ateliers with experience as Pattern cutting assistant at Acne Studio, at Mary Katrantzou, Moschino and as a design and studio assistant at Samuel Gui Yang, Students regularly create their designs and work towards creative models and personal goals. Once the base is strong the teaching becomes guidance showing different paths of realisation for each design and helping the students to achieve them independently. A lot of students also book a large number of hours for a specific project they want to achieve and they've all been content with their achievement, I'm really grateful as a tutor to have such wonderful students and I really love my job.

Private fashion tutoring in my Fashion Studio in Caledonian Road, London or online. I'm Emma, I'm a Central Saint Martins Fashion alumna and a short course tutor for Central Saint Martins and UAL where I teach Innovative Pattern-cutting, Sustainable Colours and Fashion Portfolio courses online and in college. Aside from that, I work freelance as a project manager, fashion design consultancy and other fashion-related projects! I'm proposing one-to-one fashion tutorials, the session will be tailored to your needs and teaching can include sewing, pattern cutting, portfolio development, design/textile development, fashion business development, fashion marketing & PR, fashion illustration, natural dye and lake. The session can be online, in my studio or on location. I have students coming from all backgrounds and can help to improve your skills, prepare a portfolio (digital and 2D) for higher education, support university students on their projects for fashion design, pattern cutting, draping or fashion marketing or tutoring for A-level and I also offer business consultancy for any future projects you might have. I have one foot in education and the other one in the industry, I have taught for many different schools and levels, worked freelance and researched natural dye and pigments. I have been working in the industry with designers but also for brands such as Acne Studio and Moschino. We would work together to achieve great quality patterns and garments that you will be proud to wear! I adapt my work to each student's abilities and targets and I'm a creative and patient tutor so don't hesitate to ask me if you have any specific requests not listed or for any other questions/requirements you might have. The studio is equipped with industrial and domestic machines depending on the needs. All the materials for the lesson are provided but you can bring your own if you want to experiment with them. The lessons are given at the studio but can be given at home. Lessons will be focused on each student's target to push them to achieve their best. The studio is located 5 min from Hampstead Station (northern line) One of my greatest strengths is to push students to seek an understanding of what they create, how they perceive the world around them and the work they produce in response. By nurturing each student's creative process and intelligence I can meet their unique needs and create a favourable work environment. Each student is encouraged to enhance their skills through one-to-one support. My goal is to support students by developing their motivation, creativity and skills while showing them how art relates to political, economic and environmental issues. My range of skills and my strong knowledge of modern cultural references and the history of fashion and art support each student in developing meaningful projects with unique references. I'm a fully qualified tutor with a PGCE and enhanced DBS and have worked on GCSE & A-Levels Art and Textile, BTEC Art & Design, BA Fashion. My teaching can cover some of the below: SEWING Basic sewing, stitch lines, round and corner Finishing hem Sewing jersey Sewing pockets Sewing collars Sewing waistband Inserting a zip Sewing a dress Sewing a shirt Sewing a jacket Sewing a trouser Bring your own machine-machine points and use exploration PATTERN CUTTING Copy your favourite garment Skirt from block Top from block Dress from block Trouser from block Shirt Transforming Drape into Pattern TUTORING Make a garment from our collection Bring your own pattern Accessories and gift Sustainable fashion easy steps Portfolio for fashion Fashion illustration and drawing Fashion Business made easy Fashion production's first steps Photoshop, Indesign and Illustrator for beginner TEXTILE Introduction to silk painting Introduction to heat press design Introduction to traditional marbling Introduction to natural dye Introduction to lake extraction

Emma is a fantastic tutor. I’ve been having weekly classes for the last few years - she is patient, knowledgable and always makes the lesson fun and engaging. Highly recommend!
Emma is hands-down the best tutor you can find on this platform. She is extremely knowledgeable on the fashion industry and gives every individual student her 100% attention. Another quality of hers that I admire the most is that she brings out the best qualities in her students and makes sure that outcomes of all projects are as best as they can be. She really pushes your creativity and encourages you to challenge yourself. Not only that but the lessons with her are always so productive and relaxing. I really really recommend Emma for not only portfolio help but with any advice/ help around the fashion industry.
Very responsive and always meet the needs of the students and solve their problems
Emma supported me a lot during learning, no matter pattern cutting, research or fashion illustration. Very detailed instructions, easy for everyone to follow.
Emma is a fantastic teacher - I had the mad idea that I wanted to make a lined coat (this is the most ambitious thing I’ve ever attempted). She guided me through every step, she was patient happy to go through things again when I didn’t quite understand. She was the best find - I learnt so many new techniques - it was a real pleasure to have the opportunity to learn with her guidance - I’m looking at attempting another project so that I can call upon her expertise again - I highly recommend.
I’ve been loyal to Emma for the past three years now. I always trust her advice and I believe that she pushes me to do better in my studies which makes her an amazing tutor.
Emma is someone that is always willing to share knowledge and will help others to develop. She is positive, hard working and has a can do attitude.
I’ve been having lessons with Emma for over a year and she is awesome! I was a complete beginner and she has taught me the foundations of garment construction which is pretty challenging but she’s so patient and the lesson are fun! Emma is also very professional in her approach (always on time starting) and provides a good amount of structure. I can’t recommend her enough!
I currently learn pattern making with Emma. She is a very patient tutor who takes the time to understand your needs and teaches you step-by-step at your own pace.
She is high and multi skilled so you can expand your knowledges in a variety of fields (art, dressmaking, textile, textile printing, etc).
And most of all she is a very kind person always eager to help you in your projects!Emma is a brilliant tutor, I can’t recommend her enough. I have learnt so much, guiding and teaching me from a beginner point as a fashion design BA student, her knowledge is great and has helped me with sewing techniques and pattern cutting. So grateful to have found her and doubt I’ll ever stop going for lessons!
Emma gives me sewing classes since January. She is really reliable and trustworthy. I love to spend time with her as teacher-student dynamic and now as friends. She shared her experience and her passion for sewing and design. She managed to lead me toward my goal. Now I'm more independant but she is still present and giving me some valuable tips.
