About Belinda
Garment production lecturer with experience in facilitating, teaching and mentoring students in developing core skills needed for patternmaking, garment construction, CMT readiness using tech packs. My experience covers womenswear, menswear and bespoke garments.

Understanding what you are working on (or working with) gives you an independence in design, patternmaking, construction and even fitting. As a tutor, I will help you to acquire knowledge and technical skills on how to execute your own design, with excitement and confidence, while paying attention to details.
My teaching style is very interactive but relaxing. Lessons are tailored to your needs. I make use of the "Italian dressmaking school" (by Giovanna Sansalvadore), which is a great manual for creating patterns and garments that fit like a glove!

Perfect! I'm so glad that I made contact with Belinda. She had lots of tips and advice that weren't in the user manual. I'm looking forward to learning a lot more from her.
- The first lesson went pretty well. Ann was well prepared and remained engaged throughout the lesson. With more practice, she will be fine!Belinda's response :

I know Belinda from Elizabeth Galloway, where she was my production lecturer. I would describe Belinda as superwoman. Belinda is very reliable, she always shows up. She helps you to become the best version of yourself, holds you accountable, and celebrates the small victories with you. She is very compassionate, always there to listen if you struggle. My fashion journey wouldn’t have been as successful as it was without her. She impacted our lives for the better. Our class enjoyed having her as our lecturer and loved her like a mother. Will forever be grateful that I got to know her.
I had the pleasure of meeting Belinda in Cape Town during an event, and I was thoroughly impressed by her exceptional work ethic, vast knowledge, and passion for teaching and fashion.

Rating: 5/5 stars
I highly recommend Belinda as a Production tutor. I had the pleasure of learning under her guidance when she was my pattern maker teacher during my studies. Belinda’s teaching style is both thorough and approachable, making complex concepts easy to understand. She combines technical expertise with a passion for teaching, creating an environment where students feel comfortable to ask questions and explore their creativity.
Her attention to detail and clear, structured approach to teaching pattern making gave me a solid foundation that I still rely on today. Belinda’s ability to connect with students and provide tailored support is unmatched, and she is genuinely dedicated to helping others succeed in the fashion industry.
If you're looking for a knowledgeable, patient, and inspiring tutor in the fashion production field, I wholeheartedly recommend Belinda. She will undoubtedly boost your confidence and skills in ways that will set you up for success.Belinda taught me everything I know about garment construction, she was my lecturer for 3 years. She didn’t only teach me how to sew, seeing her passion for what she does made me fall in love with it all together. She is not only amazing at teaching people new skills, but phenomenal at building relationships with her students. I would recommend anyone else to tutor production, I might just study it again if she’s teaching the subject!
Belinda is a fantastic teacher. Without her I would not have understood and gained such an appreciation for patterns and sewing. She made all of the difference while I completed my fashion degree, I would not have been able to complete it without her knowledge in the field!
Belinda taught me for three years, she will always stand out as one of the most passionate and hard working teachers I have ever been privileged enough to be taught by. She will make sure you pay attention to detail, and do your work in the most professional way possible.
I am incredibly grateful for the guidance and support I have received from my production lecturer, Belinda. She is hands down the best teacher I could have asked for. With her patience, expertise, and unwavering dedication, she has not only shared invaluable knowledge but also empowered me with the confidence I needed to pursue my dreams. Without her guidance, I wouldn’t be where I am today, and I truly believe her impact will stay with me for a lifetime. I would highly recommend Belinda.
She explains thoroughly and in detail. Very patient and understanding when it comes to what you don’t know.
