City Academy

"Took a watercolour class with Sheila in person downtown. It was really fun and informative. I'm no expert but am pleased with the new skills I gained! 100% recommend."

"I joined the Creative Writing Course. It was so much fun and had great atmosphere. The tutor Niki was really encouraging and supportive. She gave a lot of hints and feedback. I learned a lot from her and the other participants. Will definitely try other City Courses! PS: Not even a native English Speaker"

"I wanted to understand watercolors better. A good beginning ground, what to use, how to use, what to avoid, try different techniques… but nothing happened. It was huge disappointment for money I paid. It was like lessons for five years old children. Let’s play and be nice. Find your brush and paint and pain what you like. Three days. Terrible. Waste of money and time if you have ever tried Watercolors. Tutor was sweet but definitely without proper experience in education of adults. Very silent. Not helpful. I didn’t pay for killing time but for new knowledge or skill. Not happening. Sad."

"Not usually one to leave reviews but I've taken 3 sets of classes with City Academy (Absolute Beginners Dance, Street Dance Beginners and Contemporary Beginners) and they have been wonderful experiences. They really cater to beginners and each teacher I have had has created an environment where you feel like you can learn and make mistakes without judgement. Also appreciate that they bring in cover teachers when a teacher isn't available or give a make up class if a class does have to be cancelled."

"So after having done some acting, I wanted to upskill so booked onto the 5-Day Foundation Acting course. Before I started the course I was worried the course might be too basic but oh how I was wrong!! This is probably the best course I've ever done, in any field. Honestly, this course was incredible!! Literally 100%!! I cannot stress this enough. The tuition was so strong including the tutor that stepped in that you developed so quickly and the info felt invaluable. The teachers were so passionate and actually pushed you to understand and develop. I learned things I didn't even know I needed to learn, now they're invaluable skills and I'm desparately searching for a way to learn more! Genuinely an unforgettable experience and I gingerly would add, possibly even, "the perfect course." I say that because I just can't fathom how you could add anything else. Such a rewarding experience. Thanks City Academy."
