What to Expect from My Cooking Lessons

Whether you're a complete beginner or just looking to build confidence in the kitchen, my lessons are designed to be relaxed, practical, and full of flavour. Every session takes place live over Zoom (or your preferred platform), so you can learn from the comfort of your own home—no stress, no travel, and no need for a fancy kitchen setup.

I begin each lesson with a quick chat to settle in, check on ingredients and equipment, and tailor the pace to your confidence level. Then we cook together in real time, step by step. I explain not just the “how” but the “why” behind each technique, giving you the kind of insider tips that make all the difference. You’ll learn everything from knife skills and seasoning to time-saving hacks and creative flavour pairings.

Lessons are 60 to 90 minutes long and always hands-on. I send over a clear recipe and prep list beforehand, and I’m happy to adapt for dietary needs or ingredient swaps. There’s plenty of time to ask questions along the way, and I’ll stick around until your dish is ready—because every good cook deserves a proper finish.

I’ve spent years in professional catering and home kitchens alike, and nothing gives me more joy than helping someone go from “I can’t cook” to “Look what I made!” My goal is simple: to make cooking feel achievable, enjoyable, and delicious.

Let’s get you cooking with confidence!
