These recipes have been tried and tested for over 8 years. The recipes work and the students (and parents) really enjoy them!

Get your friends to book in too and enjoy cooking together on Zoom! Join me in my kitchen cooking with students and feel part of the gang.

How great would it be you could use this course again?

These courses were originally set up for DofE students, but they are fantastic for so many others including younger children with adult supervision, home-schooling students and parents and adults who would like some excellent value professional cookery lessons from the convenience of their own homes.

I'm really proud of my experience which has given me the tools to support you all

If you’re finding yourself nodding along to all this, you’re not alone…

My purpose in life is to teach adults (young and old) to cook and I love it!

My students learn, using professional chef skills, how to cook amazing recipes that are simple, fun and rewarding.

I'm a specialist teacher because I have an extraordinary background and I focus on teaching with nutrient-dense ingredients for great health.

In 2022 I qualified as a nutrition therapist because I know how powerful food is and I want to be in the best health myself and to pass that on to my students. I can now be sure that I am offering the best tuition, providing recipes that are not only delicious but are nutrient-focussed.

The journey has got to be fun and you can join me also in my 'Be in the Kitchen DofE Online Cookery Skills Course' Facebook Group to see what students are getting up to.
