Q4: I have also worked in education (hence the learning theme). How would you go about teaching your creative/maker skills to other interested people? #MakersHour

    @MakersHour@cupoftea.social A4 one of the best jobs I ever had was at the University of Stirling where I worked as a chaplain. I had a sewing group called Patches4Peace and I taught mending, sewing and transformation of garments. They were such lovely students and it was a fun group. #MakersHour

    Q4: I have also worked in education (hence the learning theme). How would you go about teaching your creative/maker skills to other interested people? A4: I spent from 2018 to July last year training new entrants to my department so have some experience in this! My view on it is that how *I* want to train is irrelevant, it’s how *they* want to learn that’s important. A trainer should adapt their style to suit the learner. I’ve taught specific topics in multiple different ways, yes, I have my preference, but it’s not about me. #makershour @MakersHour@cupoftea.social
