Why every school should have a copy

How many times have you as a tutor had to explain to your students the same sewing technique over and over again?

Do all your students get a close up over the shoulder look at what you are demonstrating?

Now you can have a resource that all the students can see clearly (especially if you have use of a projector).
-
Each student will get a bird's eye view.
The Essential Sewing Skills DVD set is unique with an A – Z clickable menu that gives you fast access to any of 61 most commonly used sewing techniques. No need to scan hours of sewing lessons , just click on the technique you want to view.

Bulk Purchasing
Some institutions are placing our DVD set on the buying list for their students. Where students are studying sewing at an academy, tertiary institution, secondary school and are required to gain a working knowledge of practical sewing skills, we suggest that your students also purchase their own copy of our DVD set. Not only will it become a valuable asset while they are on the course but will continue to be a great reference tool once they leave.
If your institution should consider this please contact us direct for bulk purchasing prices.

Damaged Discs
What if a disc becomes damaged for one reason or another? Everyone wants to get the best out of their purchases and we suggest that the discs are handled carefully at all times....and this may mean that the teacher only has access to them. However, accidents can happen.
Not a problem. Single discs can be purchased at any time.
