    Review of Glass Beadmaking 2, June 02, 2009

    He class is tailored by Shirley to the individual students with neat demonstrations and one on one help. It was the second time I had Shirley as an instructor and I plan on taking more classes with her.

    Review of Shirley Cook, April 04, 2009

    I signed up for Beadmaking I class at BAGI in San Jose. While I am a glass lover, I had no previous experience working with glass. Shirley has and easy-going style, with a nice sense of humor (class was fun) and she provided us with lots of examples of real-world situations as well as class samples.

    Shirley did a great job of walking us through the process and explaining everything.

    The demonstrations were excellent.... Shirley explained technique as well as tips while she did the demo. And I felt like I was equiped to try everything she showed us.

    Then as we all practiced what she just showed us, she gave detailed input and direction. Always in a direct, constructive fashion.

    Shirley is a true artist and mentor. I am hoping to follow in her footsteps!

    Lisa, it was so much fun having you in class! You've made wonderful progress, and I hope to see you in some upcoming classes. You'll just love the metals class, particularly the "oooh aaah" moment of the final technique! Have I gotten you curious enough yet? ;-) Thanks for your wicked good sense of humor, always appreciate a fellow New Englander!
