What students say about my courses

Mauro and I spent time ‘one on one’ in his Studio; he shared his knowledge and tecniques generously with me. He watched me work and in a short time he improved my skills in numerous ways by offering different perspectives on flameworking glass. The hours spent together were fruitful and I am grateful for all the knowledge I received.

— Alberto Gee

Everything was really excited me duringI learned glasswork from Mauro. He set me many fantastic models. His studio is full of marine life that he created, colorful glass and many tools. Justice a treasure chest! I had an amazing time there. I will be soon.

— Yuko

Mauro is an excellent instructor. He is able to explain flame working tecniques in ways that make them fun and easy to understand.
