Frequently Asked Questions

What types of classes do you offer? Where are they located?

We offer online classes, classroom-based courses, and blended learning. 

1. Our online classes allow you to study in the convenience of your home. 

We offer two types: 

  • Self-study

You can access the course 24 hours/day. It is perfect if you need flexibility.

  • Via Zoom

These classes will run at a specific date and time. Your tutor will teach you directly on screen.  

This course model is ideal if you would like to be able to ask questions and communicate with your tutor and fellow students online.  

2. Classroom-based courses

Classroom learning allows you to interact with your tutor and peers face-to-face. 

You can ask questions and get immediate feedback. 

These classes are perfect for hands-on hands-on activities as the tutor can demonstrate techniques and solutions directly in front of you. 

3. Blended Learning

It’s a type of learning that combines online and classroom-based teaching. Blended learning has the objective of bringing together the best of both worlds to achieve more efficient learning. 

Our classroom-based lessons are located in our workshop in Zechin, Germany (approx. 1 hour from Berlin) or at Rudolf Steiner House in London. 

You can find the location in the course description.
