Cookery Teacher required for a weekly one hour lesson in our kitchen


Tams

Recommended Posts

Our 15 year old son would like to learn the skill of cooking as part of his Duke of Edinburgh Bronze Award. We are looking for a Cookery or Home Economics Teacher who would enjoy teaching him in our house over a 3 month period. The lesson would take place on a week day, at your convenience, with the exception of Monday, and between 4.30 and 8.30pm.


I would be happy to purchase and supply all the ingredients and equipment each week, with the hope that each lesson would produce one substantial dish/part of a course. It would need to be large enough for a family of five plus a helping for you, the teacher if you would like one. Our son would be expected to clear up after the lesson.


Our son has some availability to start now on a Tuesday, or Wednesday until 9th April. After that he is available from 24th April.


An applicant of any age would be welcome as long as you have experience of teaching cooking. You would need to be enthusiastic, communicative and patient. You would be welcome to teach 1 lesson on a trial basis. We can offer ?10/hour.


Please reply with some information about your cookery teaching experience, two references and some indication of what you hope to get out of it for yourself.


Thank you for considering this.

Hi there,


I saw this quite randomly and had to respond as I might be willing to help.


Being honest I am not a home economics teacher or cookery teacher, but I was a professional chef for nearly 10 years. I started as a commis chef (lowest of the low) and worked my way up to Sous chef (just below head chef). I have worked in hotels, restaurants, Spa hotels, outside catering to running private chalets in the French Alps.


My reason for contacting is simple, I enjoy cooking. For a friends 40th birthday last weekend I catered for 36 people. I love getting people involved in cooking, I trying to involve my little 4 year old when cooking at home, its such a great skill to have.


I have also mentored young adults with difficulties, so I know how hard it is to work with teenagers.


Not sure if this helps, let me know if it does?


Warm regards


Nic

    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why?
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
    • CPR Dave, attendance records are available on Southwark's website. Maggie Browning has attended 100% of meetings. Jon Hartley has attended 65%.
    • I do hope NOT, wouldn't trust Farage as far as I could throw him, Starmer & co.  He's backed by GB News which focus's predominantly on immigration while the BBC focus predominantly on the Israel - Gazza conflict.
