A good point well saidWhen I first started out, my boss was one of those old Italian Terrazzo men, one of the first to do Terrazzo over here. I was lucky he taught me everything, to pass the knowledge on (hes in his late 70's). I will forever be grateful to him, even if he could be a bit of a whatsit most days. The old ways and skills are a dying art now, which saddens me. People have to learn these skills, or the specialist trades disappear. If someone wants to learn something I do not see any reason not to teach them, like Muse says some people do have a natural talent for these things, others simply do not even if they have been doing it for years.

Soory guys... I have very little time for DIYers or these Micky mouse courses..
Become a tiler in a week? I think not!
Go on YouTube tile walls and floor BS !
Nowt wrong with the courses, in the end its down to the individual and what they do with the info theyve learnt. Theyre a starting block. Needs must.
I'm talking from experience, Iv worked with too many muppets who think there pros after 5min training..
I will happily take 2-3k of anyone wanting to be a tiler in a week
So am I.
You cant tar everyone with the same brush, which people are so keen to do, its just lazy.
I started tiling from doing a 4 week course, plus a couple of other courses and i aint too bad at this tiling malarky. One of the guys up for this years TTA tiler of the year originally learnt on a course, as did a recent winner. As it happens we all learnt with the same company.
My point was that regardless of your experience or capabilities at some point you are doing something for the first time.
