Norma's Stained Glass 101 has been great. It's 4 classes total, but the schedule is flexible so that you can work at your own pace and reschedule if need be. I've completed 3 of the 4 classes and have learned a lot and have seen very good results on my project. Tomorrow I will be finishing framing and soldering. I highly recommend this class to anyone with appreciation for stained glass and DIY projects!

Norma is an awesome instructor. And she assures her classes are super small so students get individual attention. She is knowledgeable, thoughtful, attentive, and flexible. She supported my desire to make something other than the offered window. And, surprisingly, on day 1 of the course, you get to take home a mini-project. It's awesome! I highly recommend her classes.

This is a great class, I really enjoyed it. Norma is a great teacher, she picked up on the fact that I had some experience with glass and soldering so she adjusted my project to keep me challenged. Her teaching style strikes a nice balance between instruction and independent work that I really appreciate and I feel confident that she would have provided more instruction if/when I needed it.
