I teach as well, and was faced with a left handed student last term. hmm, me no left hand, her left handed. We stumbled through! and she signed up for a second round of classes.

Your students must get so much from your classes. <br />If your one-handed student has a strong enough desire, I'm sure you both will figure out how she can make work on the wheel. How interesting!<br />And I absolutely love the peace symbol pendant - it is luscious!Judy Shrevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13817638135856406785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3393740465996795163.post-13930775321321128832010-02-04T23:56:03.015-08:002010-02-04T23:56:03.015-08:00I do think I am a good teacher,you guys, and it...I do think I am a good teacher,you guys, and it's such a bonus when you get a group like this one and groups like my last Raku class. Their enthusiasm for learning is so infectious. I had an email tonight of a video showing a man with one hand throwing and it's great to see how very possible this is going to be. Thanks Cindy for sending that to me. Ang, I am going to try with one hand although my throwing skills with two hands are sometimes sketchy!Tracey Broomehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14560971496423789576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3393740465996795163.post-33658375819511647882010-02-04T21:39:05.245-08:002010-02-04T21:39:05.245-08:00Great post, Tracey..
