  2. I thought these videos were really helpful for beginning wheel thrown pieces, especially the first one about centering the piece. I was a little nervous about the wheel thrown pottery so I am glad these videos addressed common issues at each step and how to fix them.

  3. I found these videos very knowledgeable. i have never done pottery on a wheel before so having these videos to refer to will be helpful in the future.

  4. I found these videos really helpful. I am very nervous to throw on the wheel because there are a lot of ways that you can mess up. I'm glad I could get some understanding before actually throwing on the wheel.

  7. Olivia Walsh- I liked these videos because he showed actual demos of how things can go wrong but also how you can fix them without just getting new clay. I also liked how he used common terms like volcano and mushroom to describe the clay so I can remember easier.

  8. I really enjoyed these videos because they were so helpful. I love how many different shapes he made in the 3rd video. I'm excited to try this but also nervous because I've never done anything like this in art before.

  9. All of these videos seem like they will help me when i get started on the wheel. The first one was the one I thought was the most useful because it showed me how to start off on the wheel.

  10. These videos helped a lot with showing the small stuff that I probably wouldn't do right on the wheel if I just started to do it on my own. I've never used one before so I'm pretty excited.

  11. I like these videos because they helped me to better understand how the wheel throwing works. I'm excited to try the wheel but i feel like it is going to be kind of hard. I liked how the guy in the video showed how things can go wrong which is helpful for people who have never used the wheel before - alexandra

  13. These videos were extremely helpful, but I feel like the opening video about how to get rid of flaws in the middle is a lot harder than it looks in the video. It looks like you have to be extremely precise and there's no room for error, but I'm excited to use the wheel for the first time. -austin

  15. I think that throwing on the wheel will be fun once I am able to do it. If only I could do it with one hand, but I think that the videos were very helpful. Sorry this was a little late.
