Your Tutor
Name: Jane Neesam
Bio: Jane graduated with a degree in Fashion and Textiles from Leicester Polytechnic, specialising in Contour Fashion (corsetry, lingerie and swimwear).
Working as a bra designer and later as a garment technologist in the lingerie industry, Jane relished the challenges and new skills that manufacturing presented. Whilst training and qualifying as a tutor in the volunteer sector, Jane realised she could transfer those skills to share her passion and knowledge of making clothes with others.
Her goal is to facilitate a sewing session where students can learn and develop at their own pace and where everyone feels valued and at ease. For more information, please contact Jane on 07742 292405 or janeneesam@gmail.com
