It was a fun experience! I will certainly use the skills I have learned in this class. Well organized, prepared materials, clear instructions, good teacher! Thank you!

Class was fun and a relaxing escape from a busy lifestyle

This was my first dabble & I had a great time! Positive + informative teacher that provided everyone in the class with one on one instruction. Definitely worth checking out if you want to try a new hobby!

I learned a lot about lettering in this class! It was more instruction that I thought but it laid a good foundation. Don't expect to walk out a addressing invitations but you will leave with a solid understanding of the fundamentals.

This class was so wonderful! Tamasin did a great job explaining the basics of lettering and then let us get to practicing! She walked around the class several times to offer tips and watch our technique. I cannot wait to continue to practice this skill. This class helped me so much - far better than a practice book on my own. I would definitely take another class from Tamasin in the future!

The class was great! Tamasin has a good system for teaching people with a range of lettering experience. I appreciated how the practice sheets were laid out. I've already worked on some of them at home and will continue to practice. I highly recommend the class.

Very helpful class. It's obvious Tamison has been doing this awhile. She's very knowledgeable on the subject and is very helpful. I love the one on one attention she gives everyone. Be prepared for hand to hurt though.

Great beginners class. Instructor gave class instruction along with individual attention. Received pen and paper to continue your practice at home. Studio was nice and class size was appropriate.

The class started out with the teacher giving her background and briefly discussing lettering. She gave practice sheets and had students work at their own pace while she provided feedback along the way. Free parking available near studio.

The class was fantastic. The instructor was very patient and assisted everyone based on their individual needs. I look forward to going back!

The class was awesome!

The class was a lot of fun! My fiancé and I are getting married this year and both have design backgrounds so thought it would be a class both of us would enjoy and to help us learn lettering for our wedding signage! Tamasin was a great teacher and loved the way she introed the class, created a booklet for us to work through and would be as hands on or off as we wanted. Would definitely go back to another one of her classes!

I've always wanted to take a calligraphy class but was worried about the difficulty, having never done something similar before. Tamasin made this class so approachable, and her 1-on-1 time with everyone was extremely beneficial. She'd teach you something, walk around, and be back to you again in no time. Definitely recommend this class!

I loved this class...the teacher was extremely helpful and gave great 1:1 instruction. She was kind, knowledgable and encouraging. The space was great and easy parking outside. I hope she does a follow up class...I'd sign up in a second!

Great class! The teacher was really helpful, and we left with supplies and a practice guide.

This was a fantastic class! I took it two days ago and I have been practicing my skills non stop ever since. Tamisin had a great teaching style and she is SO TALENTED. I would love to sign up for an intermediate class as soon as she hosts one. Thank you!

Modern Lettering was a very fun class -- and you walk away with your own pen and book to practice. The teacher was very helpful and patient with all of the students. She walked around to tell everyone how to better their technique. I'm very happy I took this class!

The class was fun and helpful! It was a great introduction to the basic feel and technique for lettering with a brush pen. I also liked that we went home with worksheets and our own pen for continued practice at home.

I really enjoyed this class. The location was convenient for me and the group we had was fun. I've been practicing with thank you notes to friends and family for gifts from my recent engagement and have already received positive feedback. I explained, "I took a class on Dabble!"

It is great that the instructor shares with you material details (what brush pens to purchase, paper/notebooks that will work best, as well as cost and best places to purchase).

Finally, the instructor herself was great. She was really chill and gave instruction in a way that I felt wasn't attacking or judgey at all. I would definitely take more classes with her!

Great space and great class! Another review had said the class was too short, but I disagree - I think it was the right amount of time to learn the fundamentals, but ended just at the time people were getting tired of writing. I had tried to do brush lettering on my own, it's definitely best to it when a teacher can bring up nuances and slight corrections that make a big difference.

Loved this class! Tomasin was a helpful and patient teacher.

Such a fun class! It was the right amount of time and felt like I got the knowledge and tools to continue practicing on my own!

The class was difficult, but fun. I think the class could actually be longer, maybe by at least a half hour. I wasn't expecting the amount of structure involved in this style of lettering, but it was still fun. Overall, it was a fun experience and I was able to meet some new people and begin learning a new skill.

I was nervous at first in not knowing. How to used my Brush pen feeling that I was never to get the handle of the techniques. But Tamasin gave me the courage and the know how to create some beautiful lettering by the end of class. This is a most class to take to create your inner self in print.

We LOVED this class. I went with my mom and it was such a fun way to spend a Sunday. We learned a lot, and had a ton of time to practice with the support of the teacher. She was so patient with us and VERY informative which provided the proper guidance for learning how to letter. Would recommend this to anyone who is interested in learning how to letter.

Great instruction. Learned a lot and am now hooked on lettering.

This was a great opportunity to learn the basics of a modern lettering style. Tamasin was helpful, providing one-on-one tips as she walked around the room. Lots of time to practice!

Loved further developing my skills with Tamasin. Since this was a smaller class, she was able to give us one-on-one pointers and advice to help us develop our skills. We focused on capital letters, different fonts, and bounce lettering. Can't wait for the next class!

I had a great time at this class. Modern Lettering is definitely challenging but the instructor was very patient and kind. She has a wonderful can-do attitude. I would definitely do it again!

This was an excellent class. The format was easy to follow and I got great feedback from the instructor. The group was a lot of fun and I learned a lot! I would highly recommend!

This class was great! I had zero experience with lettering before but Tamasin's approach definitely made it seem doable, and her worksheets will definitely help me practice at home. I'd like to follow up with one of her advanced classes.

This class was an enjoyable couple of hours of trying something I've never done before. The class size was small enough for Tamasin to offer individual attention and instruction and we left with a brush pen and templates to keep up the practice at home.

I took this class and enjoyed it a lot. I had no previous experience with modern lettering, but I feel as if I came away with a budding new skill. The class was comfortable, fun and a skill I want to pursue further. The teacher, Tamarian, was friendly, wonderful and gave constant feedback. The class only had seven people in it and because of that, Tamarian was able to work closely with each student.

I took this class in preparation for our wedding, I didn't realize how challenging yet fun lettering is! The instructor was fantastic and I would definitely take again or a follow-up class!

Still practicing! Left with great tools to use at home!

This is a fun class to practice creating. The brush strokes take some practice but you get to take home paints and a waterbrush to keep practicing. I liked picking a word or phrase and painting it out. The instructor is very talented

Good class, had lots of individual time with the instructor and a lot of time to practice. Good take homes with the workbook, pen, and card.

Great class, learned a lot, nice small group for individual attention. Would definitely recommend!

Our class was smaller than a typical class (6 students). We received a lot of personal attention and feedback. The templates and guidance were truly helpful. It will take practice to develop the skill, but it's worth it!

Such a fun and helpful class! I had no experience with modern lettering before this class and was able to learn the basics and see significant progress in this 2 hour class. After continued practice, I plan to be back for her intermediate class! Definitely recommend this class.

Tamasin is wonderful! Informative, patient, and very good at giving constructive criticism. I definitely learned a lot about brush lettering and look forward to practicing and improving my art!

This was a fun class. Great way to try out something new. The instructor gave individual attention to each person so that they get the most out of the class.

I have fallen in LOVE with brush lettering! I have taken on the ambitious task of addressing my wedding envelopes and Tamasin has been incredibly helpful. She provides great worksheets for practice and individualized attention and feedback to students in order to develop their skill set. I definitely would recommend this class!

What a great teacher!!! She was so patient, supportive and encouraging! Loved the class!!

The teacher was very prepared and knowledgeable. She worked with all of the students to provide feedback. She broke down the strokes before teaching the letters which was super helpful. She kept the class fun and engaging! I'll definitely sign up for more classes with her.

The Modern Lettering class was a great introduction to the craft. The materials that came with the class fee were quality and the pace was on-par with a beginning lettering class. The teacher was skilled at working the room and paying special attention to each of the students, and she brought a lot of hope with her anecdotes (she's self-taught, which means it is never too late for any of us to learn this skill!) All in all, good times!

This was a great class, and super interesting. I wish we had a bit more time to practice under the watchful eye and guidance of our instructor, but overall the class was wonderful. I bought a notebook and calligraphy pens afterwards to continue practicing. Would definitely recommend!

Tamasin is so talented and such a great instructor! Her packet of practice sheets was really helpful, as was her individual attention during the class. I would love to take another of her classes!

I loved this class! I really could see progress by the end of the 2 hours. Getting individual feedback was key, especially since I am a lefty.

I had an excellent time learning beginner calligraphy. We learned all the lower case letters but I was hoping to have learned the upper case. I looked them up online but they aren't exactly the same style as we learned.

I loved this class!!! It was a great way for beginners to try Lettering. I love the set up of the class, that starts with an explanation and then we practice. This is a fun class to attend with friends, and I recommend it for anyone.

Tamasin is both knowledgeable and patient - I had a great time attending her class and learning the basics of Modern Lettering. I walked away with some useful materials and an awesome beginner's brush pen to practice with. The space was also clean and comfortable - and the class size was definitely manageable: after a 20-minute intro, Tamasin spent the remainder of the time rotating around the table and offering one-on-one coaching. I would definitely recommend this class to others!

This was a great class with hands on, one on one instruction and coaching. Some of the techniques were a little bit tricky but we used the whole class time to practice and I was happy with what I'd finished by the end of class. I'm looking forward to the other classes in this series!

This class was super fun and easy. The instructor made the concepts easy to understand, provided great resources and took time to work one-on-one with everybody.

It was lot of fun. She is lovely and love to teach! =)

Had a great time learning a fun New skill! The instructor was very helpful and had great materials to share with the class!

This was the best! While I have tried, on my own , to develop my own hand at modern calligraphy, this class offered practical insights on technique that will definitely improve my style of calligraphy. I strongly recommend this class and instructor if you have any interest in learning modern calligraphy.

The process of modern lettering is difficult but Tamasin made it fun and positive! She had great tools & tips for beginners, and was very helpful & knowledgeable when it came to critiquing.

This class was the perfect introduction to modern lettering! Tamasin provides you with a brush pen and a folder with worksheets to get you started. She's very helpful and goes around the room providing individual feedback.

I thought this was an excellent class, and was a great way for me to get my feet wet in this new hobby. I appreciated Tamasin's patience and help.

Loved it! Definitely requires patience but Tamasin is awesome and an absolute expert. 2 hours is a long time for this so come in with patience and no expectation of how good you should be at first. Practice makes perfect for this and I look forward to taking another class!

Great class that has really inspired me to continue practicing! Just bought my own set of pens and also have been doing a bunch of signage for cards, gifts and bachelorette presents.

Great class! Low key environment with great balance of 1 on 1 help and enough time to practice on your own. Tamasin was very patient and knowledgeable!

Tamasin was personable, patient and made the class fun! She even offered teas and coffee to sip on while learning. She had a well thought out packet of information that was a nice take home for future use.

Modern Lettering was such a fun class! Tamasin provided instruction pages to get you going and practicing was fun. She was helpful to everyone - overall a great class that really flew by.

I enjoyed the class and was able to confidently do the lettering by the time it was over. I look forward to doing more projects with the skill I learned.

The class was fantastic!! The teacher came around to you individually and really made sure we knew basic strokes and where we could improve in a very encouraging and kind manner. Would highly recommend this course!

Tamasin's class was a joy to take. She was fun and relatable, while still managing to impart a lot of information without it feeling overwhelming.

I hope she offers an intermediate class in the near future!

I really enjoyed this class! Tamasin did a great job at breaking down the process of hand-lettering and giving instruction. Her practice packets are a great tool for learning and her individual feedback was very useful.

I had a great time taking this class! There was plenty of time to practice and Tamasin was able to go around and around the table to give one on one advice as we progressed through the exercises. I have kept up my practice this whole weekend!

Great class! The format worked well with Tamasin starting with tips and an overview of brush lettering, moving into strokes, then letters, then connecting words. You get a free pen and notebook with details to take home! She also walks around the entire class to help everyone individually.

This is clearly not Tamasin's first rodeo--she is an experienced teacher, and it shows. The format of the class is great: she gives a speech at the beginning introducing you to lettering and the basic strokes and then she walks around giving (patient and helpful) one-on-one feedback and tips. I love that she gave us a pen and custom workbook to use during class AND take home. I will definitely continue to work on this skill!

Tamasin was fabulous! She took the time to work one on one with each person in the class which was great as some people were at different paces.

The class was fun and interactive; the instructor was awesome! Would love to take another class with her!

Great class! Very knowledgeable and informative instruction.

I went to the class with no practice. The information presented and was helpful for the skill being practice.

I've been trying to teach myself how to do modern lettering through online videos, but I wasn't getting where I felt like I needed to be. Tamasin really helped me understand some of the idiosyncrasies that I was not getting alone. This was a very valuable class for me.

This was a great class! A lot of practice is needed to master these techniques so be aware that the course is mostly working on specific brush strokes. These brush strokes are necessary for every single word! The teacher was very patient and had a lot of great advice. She walked around to individually help each person as well as gave the basic guidelines to everyone. I would recommend the class to someone that is serious about wanting to learn modern lettering.

Very fun, relaxing environment. I learned a lot from Tamasin and really appreciated that she spent time with everyone individually to show them how to improve.

This was a laid back and fun class, perfect for beginners! I left wanting to know and practice more, and appreciated the one on one feedback the most.

Tamasin did a great job explaining how to do modern lettering and going around the classroom giving individual help as we practiced.

My girl friend and I had so much fun at this class! The class was taught in a relaxed environment, the teacher was very helpful, and we were able to go at our own pace. The best part was that we were able to keep the special lettering pen the teacher gave us and went home with a booklet of instructables so we could continue to practice our lettering at home. The BOYB factor made it even more fun as everyone was able to let loose and chat with others around them and give each other fun feedback.

Modern Lettering with Tamasin Ford, was such a pleasant class. The information was very clear and easy to follow along. Instructional and practice sheets were included. You can move at your own pace, and the class is small enough you receive personalized critique about technique. This is definitely a class for someone who has not done calligraphy before. Lots of emphasis on creating muscle memory with repetitive strokes. You'll definitely walk away with the basics to start creating. I look forward to a possible intermediate class to help enhance those beginner skills.

The two-hour class flew by! It was so much fun to learn something new and Tamasin offers lots of tips and encouragement.

Really enjoyed Modern Lettering and all the tips and guidance that's Tamasin shared with us. Definitely recommend!

This was a great Dabble class! Our instructor was very friendly and open, providing individualized and constructive feedback to each of as we practiced our Modern Lettering. There was a great Girls Night vibe in the room and the space was perfect for the activity and the size of the group that attended. The take-home materials were well organized and have been so helpful in practicing at home. I would highly recommend this class to friends and family!

It was an awesome way to end the weekend. It was so fun to learn. Tamasin offered great tips and walked around making sure everyone was doing well.

Loved it! Lots of worksheets and a teacher who took time with each and every one of us in the class. Looking forward to more from Tamasin.

This was a really fun and approachable class. Anyone wanting to beautify letters, cards, invites, their notebooks, journal, etc would benefit! The materials and personal instruction are really helpful!

I absolutely loved this class! Learning this writing technique was hard but Tamasin was a helpful and reassuring teacher. We listened to fun music in a beautiful room and chatted while practicing our new technique. Highly recommend this class!!

Wonderful experience taking modern lettering with Ms. Tamasin! Learned so much about modern lettering from her!

Tamasin was great! The class was fun and very informal. she provided constructive feedback for each person in the class and I left feeling like I really learned something. I would recommend this class to anyone looking to find a new hobby.

Tamasin's class was great! She provided really helpful worksheets and instruction, and spent 1-1 time with each student to help them improve. Such a fun way to spend a night with friends.

This class was so fun and relaxing! Tamasin was a great teacher and was great at answering questions. I really like the set up of the class, you could take it super seriously and stay focused, or you could go slow and enjoy your glass of wine! Definitely reccomend!

This class could benefit from being a little smaller, to allow the teacher more time with each person. Overall, it was great!

I can't think of a better way to spend a cold Chicago Saturday, and modern lettering has become my new favorite hobby! I really appreciated Tamasin's building block approach, starting with lines and strokes and building to letters and words, and her 1:1 feedback was helpful.

Time flew by during this class. It was great getting feedback through out the class.

Great intro class to brush calligraphy! Tamasin was a great instructor--she started with a 15 minute explanation of supplies and starter tips, and the rest of the class was spent working on worksheets she had created. The worksheets were really helpful for beginners, as they broke down each letter into strokes. I had fun and left wanting to practice more at home.

Tamasin did a great job in the intro class. She provided background information and then allowed us to practice while giving individualized tips throughout the class. I'm excited to try modern lettering on my own!

Class was instruction and practice of the skill. Relaxing atmosphere

Great intro to lettering. I just need to keep practicing!

This was my first Dabble class and I loved it! Tamasin was great and all 10 or so of us got a ton of personal feedback as we worked through the workbook she had assembled for us.

Very relaxing and fun! Engaged and professional teacher, helpful feedback and tips. Great class for developing brush control - almost meditative.

I never tried lettering of any kind.
The class was challenging; learning to write like in grade school.
Tamasin's teaching technique was both patient and supportive.
This was a great class that I would try again!!

This was a great way to spend a cold Chicago Saturday! It seems like such a simple thing to learn, but lettering is fairly difficult and does take a bit of instruction. Love that the class comes with a take-home pen as I've been practicing like crazy ever since!

The class was a great learning experience. The teacher was very knowledgeable and created a comfortable learning environment. It's also BYOB!

I had such a fun time at this class. Tamasin was very knowledgeable, and custom-tailored her support to each individual student. I walked out having learned way more than I expected in such a short time... be warned though - you're going to want to hand-letter everything in your life after this class!!!

The class was great! Really enjoyable and I learned a lot!

The class was great! It went by SO fast! Tamasin was great and walked around to give feedback throughout.

The building was very chilly, dress warmly even if you're not prone to chill!

It was a great class! Time went by so fast.

Fun day learning a new skill that creatively sparks your mind. I'm using the basics I learned in this class to practice modern lettering each day to get even better! Recommend this class if you're looking for a creative outlet or to learn a new artistic skill.

Wonderful introductory class to brush lettering. Fun new skill to learn and great 1:1 attention from the instructor giving you personal tips based on what she's seeing in your practice work.

The teacher was very helpful and positive. I really enjoyed myself and I was able to learn things that I enjoyed in a very short period of time.

This class was great! Tamasin is a patient teacher and gives each person individualized attention throughout the class - which was a pleasant surprise! The majority of the class is spent practicing strokes, letters, and words, and she comes around to provide constructive criticism. It's definitely a harder skill than I expected, but it was fun to learn!

This class was excellent! Very hands on with the instructor spending a lot of time with every person in the class to discuss technique and give pointers. Was a great way to start developing lettering skills!

This was a great class to learn the basics of lettering. Tamasin does an amazing job of giving you all the tools you'll need to get started including your own brush pen and plenty of practice sheets. Everyone is encouraged to go at their own pace. Throughout the two hours Tamasin makes her way around the table multiple times to give individualized attention so you can see what you're doing well and tips for how to improve on more challenging letters.

I loved this class!! Tomasin is so helpful and gives each person very individual feedback which really helped me improve my skills. She doesn't waste much time talking, she allows everyone to dive in and start practicing right away. The brush pen that is included with the class price makes practicing and keeping up with the skill even easier. I highly recommend it to any calligraphy/ creative writing newbie!

Tamasin is a great teacher. She gives detailed feedbacks and individualized instructions and critique. I just wish she offers classes for the not so beginners anymore.

I really enjoyed this class! It was the perfect after work activity for winding down after a long day. Tamasin was a great teacher and offered plenty of hands-on help, which I really appreciated! She clearly understands technique and was able to translate into instructions that I understood. I'd recommend this class to anyone who wants to try their hand at brush lettering!

This class was a perfect introduction to modern brush lettering--all hands-on with some very helpful tips from the instructor! This was a great class to (begin to) learn a new skill while still having fun converstaions with my fellow Dabbler friends in the session.

This was a great first Dabble experience! Tamasin talked for about 10 minutes and then let us practice for the rest of the time, which I was initially a little skeptical about (I like structure), but with her handmade building block-style worksheets and personal coaching it was the perfect way to spend the two hours! I got feedback on my own lettering and also got to hear everyone else's questions that I hadn't even thought of yet. She also shared her personal learning curve and encouraged us that it's all about practice, practice, practice. Thank you, Tamasin!

Great class for beginners! Teacher provided plenty of material for practice after class.

I really enjoyed this class. I've been interested in brush lettering for awhile, but had never taken the steps to really understand what it's all about. I liked that we had the majority of the time to actually practice lettering, while the teacher came around and gave everyone individual feedback.

I really enjoyed this class and would recommend it for newbies. Aside from having a general overview, most of the class-time was dedicated to practicing technique, which is key for beginners. You will leave with a new pen and several practice sheets - yay!

I was so excited to see a brush lettering class on Dabble, and I'm so happy I signed up! Tamasin was great - she provided awesome one-on-one feedback to each person in the workshop and explained the different types of materials and lettering styles well. I'd take her class again in a heartbeat!

Tamasin is a very talented teacher and comes well prepared. I learned a lot and it is a very hands on experience. Would recommend to anyone!

This was such a wonderful two hours. It was so relaxing and informative. You get one on one feedback from the instructor. The lettering really is easy enough to learn. I was shocked at how good I got at it in just a short time.

Talented instructor, beautiful space, lots of personalized hands-on instruction at a great price. I learned so much!

Great class! Helpful and fun!

This is just what I was looking for! I appreciated the tips and tricks and individual attention that the teacher gave as she "coached" us throughout the class. This let us play around and get comfortable with trying out strokes and letters while also being able to get feedback and ask questions.

Tamasin's class was great! I have been trying to practice lettering at home but her suggestions and coaching really helped add more style to my lettering. Had a lot of fun too, highly recommend!

Fun class. The time passed quickly & it was rather soothing to work on the lettering!
