MasterClass – The Gift That Keeps on Giving

I love learning new things, and being able to learn from the best in the world is a great opportunity.

How about being able to pay a subscription and do any course from the best and most famous experts in their field and all from the comfort of your own home… in fact, you can learn with MasterClass anywhere, on a train, in a plane, on a bus or in your bedroom.

It is up to you where you login to start your MasterClass journey. The one thing that I love is that it is up to you and you can be in comfort while you are learning from the world’s best.

MasterClass is a subscription-based streaming service that offers online classes taught by renowned experts in various fields, including cooking, writing, music, business, and more. Each class is created and taught by a master in their respective field, such as Gordon Ramsay, Serena Williams, Neil Gaiman, and Martin Scorsese.

3 Reasons Why MasterClass Makes A Great Gift Idea

  • First, it provides access to high-quality instruction from the world’s most successful and influential people.
  • Second, it allows people to learn new skills and expand their knowledge from the comfort of their own home.
  • Third, it’s a gift that keeps on giving, as subscribers can access all classes for a full year and learn at their own pace.

The classes are unique and offer a mix of practical instruction and inspirational guidance. They not only teach the technical aspects of a craft but also provide insights into the creative process and the mindset of successful individuals. I for one love to learn how

Classes are well-organised, with lesson plans and course materials that are easy to follow. Additionally, the platform offers the ability to interact with other students and to ask questions of the instructors.

I believe that it’s an investment in personal and professional growth that allows you to learn and to invest in yourself.

Learning is fun with MasterClass. First, the classes are designed to be engaging and entertaining, featuring high-quality video production and a mix of practical instruction and inspirational guidance. This helps keep learners interested and motivated throughout the course.

Second, the instructors themselves are often famous and accomplished individuals in their field, making their classes both educational and entertaining. For example, a cooking class taught by Gordon Ramsay will not only teach you how to make delicious meals but also provide insights into the world of professional cooking.

Third, MasterClass provides learners with the ability to learn at their own pace and on their own schedule. This flexibility allows learners to enjoy the learning experience without the pressure of deadlines or the need to attend classes at specific times.

My favourite classes so far have been

  • Margaret Atwood Teaches Creative Writing – I loved hearing about Margaret’s background, how she started writing and learning about the Handmaid’s Tail. The course was a highlight as Margret’s dark sense of humour kept me watching and wanting to learn more.
  • Steve Martin Teaches Comedy – I love Steve Martin and am a HUGE fan of all his work. I think he is super clever with his writing and comedy and wanted to learn from the best. Steve was very giving and caring when he gave advice to new comic writers and it was interesting to learn from his insight on what works and how to make things better.
  • Richard Branson Teaches Disruptive Entrepreneurship – Richard discusses how he founded Virgin and how he never gave up even if he didn’t have the skills, he kept on going to fulfil his dream.
  • Dan Brown Teaches Writing Thrillers – I am a huge fan of Dan Brown and his book The Da Vinci Code. I am keen to learn more about writing a book and Dan’s course is informative and fun. You will learn lots about writing while having a good time too.
  • James Patterson Teaches Writing – James Patterson was fun, down to earth, and a great teacher about writing books. How to get inspired, what to do to create a book outline and so much more.
  • Shonda Rhimes Teaches Writing For Television – I love Grey’s Anatomy and all that Shonda has done in television. Shonda not only has been a showrunner for Grey’s she has also created many more shows that are very successful. I would love to write for TV and there is no one better to learn from than Shonda Rhimes.

Learning from experts in the comfort of your own home is also a great advantage of MasterClass. It allows learners to avoid inconvenience. This can be especially helpful for people who have busy schedules or who live in remote areas without access to traditional classroom learning.

Moreover, learning from experts in the comfort of your own home provides a more personalized and individualized learning experience. You can watch the classes as many times as you need to fully grasp the concepts being taught, and you can also ask questions of the instructors and interact with other learners in the online community.

Overall, MasterClass is a great way to make learning fun and enjoyable and to gain new skills and insights from experts in the comfort of your own home.

You can access the classes from anywhere and at any time, making it easy to fit learning into your schedule. Additionally, you have the ability to learn at your own pace and revisit classes as needed.

MasterClass is a great gift for friends and family, if you’re interested in learning from experts in various fields and enjoy the convenience and flexibility of online learning, MasterClass may be a great investment for you.

  8. Pick a black, grey, navy or white background for your poster. Plus the colour of the text.
  9. Choose a border or not.
  10. You don’t have to have constellations but I think it makes it look fab so for me this was essential.

Why I LOVE my Star Map 

It is something just for me.

It is unique.

Exact stars from where and when I was born.

I took a while to decide on what to get on my Star Map. I have 3 kids so I couldn’t just choose 1.

I wanted to have a star map of our new house but maps in this area don’t have enough detail.

My initial thought was to get something for the house or for others, and then I decided… I should do something for me.

My Star Map Poster is the area I was born in… Yep, a Star Map of Brisbane, Australia.

I picked the biggest size (24×36 inches) and it turned out to be rather difficult to find a frame to fit my fab personalised poster.
I finally found a great frame from Target for $15 and it fits perfectly.

Once my workshop or otherwise known as mummy’s office is complete it will be hung on the wall to inspire me.
