Hello, I paid for the class and reached the destination. I waited for 40 mins in the rain, ringing the doorbell but no one answered the door then I called the teacher 6-7 times but it straight went to voicemail despite being there on time. Overall I was really frustrated as they did not even send me a reason for the cancellation or what happened which is really unprofessional.

It was genuinely awful. Firstly the venue feels like an interrogation room, so brightly lit, and feels like an old classroom that’s just been conveniently repurposed. No music or atmosphere, but the worst part was the teacher, Will. He was incredibly rude, patronising, and also just takes it way too seriously. When someone made a joke and he told them off as ‘jokes must wait until the end’ I genuinely laughed until I realised he was serious. Just a horrible teacher and I really would not recommend.

Love the technical aspect of the class, Will knows what he is doing and the dumplings were amazing. Will needs to be a little less sassy and more aware of the people around him, at some points I felt like I was back in school getting told off by a teacher for having a good time. M.
