Cooking is something that few of really make the time for. If you'd like to get better in the kitchen, you'll probably need to practise a lot or learn about it in cooking classes or workshops.
With that in mind, let's see why it's crucial you learn about cooking, the challenges you'll face when you do, what we learn about cooking in school, and how private tutoring can help you get much better in the kitchen.
None of us can live without food yet many of us lack the skills to make good or healthy meals. Learning how to cook can save you money as you can buy raw ingredients and turn them into wonderful meals. This is particularly useful if you're cooking for more than just yourself as making a meal for several from scratch can lead to much biggest savings.
Cooking is also a lot of fun and something that you can do it home on a budget. A night in is far cheaper than going to a restaurant and there's the added satisfaction of knowing that every course was made by you.
For those interested in taking their cooking to the professional level, learning to cook is essential. While you could teach yourself, you may need certain qualifications before you can work in certain establishments.
Of course, if cooking was that easy, everyone would be amazing at it. There are a few challenges when it comes to learning how to cook.
Firstly, you have to find the time to attend cookery courses, workshops, or private cooking lessons with a tutor. You won't become an amazing cook overnight so you'll need to commit a lot of time to it. If you're planning on becoming a professional chef, it can take years of study and practice.
Secondly, there's the financial investment. You'll usually have to pay for cooking courses. If you're going to be attending them for a while, then this amount of money can add up. Even if you forego classes and workshops and decide to teach yourself, you'll be paying for equipment, ingredients, and maybe even a few cookbooks.
Finally, you have to find the motivation to learn. Even if you have the time and money to learn how to cook, you need to want to learn. A lot of people struggle to motivate themselves to prepare a meal or learn how to cook as the process can be time-consuming and there are a lot of more convenient options out there. Even just cooking a meal at home means you have to go get the ingredients from a supermarket or speciality store and sometimes spend a few hours preparing them. There are plenty of more convenient options like ready-meals, takeaways, and restaurants that you may find tempting after a long day at work.
Most children in Plymouth will learn a bit about cooking at school. By the time they reach GCSE, they may have the option to study food preparation and nutrition. Students are often dissuaded from doing these kinds of subjects in favour of more academic subjects but learning how to cook is a skill that they'll be able to use for the rest of their lives so unless their career or university place will depend on this one GCSE, it might be worth them studied it, especially if they have an interest in cookery.
On the course, they'll learn about food, where it comes from, how to eat healthily, and how to prepare it. They'll also learn about special dietary requirements, allergies, intolerances, veganism, vegetarianism, etc.
For those looking to study cookery or food preparation at A Level or university, they'll probably want to choose this GCSE.
Cooking is quite a broad subject so learning about it in school mightn't teach you exactly what you need to know about it. Private lessons with a tutor, on the other hand, allow you to learn the very skills you're interested in and the dishes you want to make.
Not only can a private tutor supplement the lessons a child gets in school, they can also help them revise for exams, go over skills they mightn't have grasped during their lessons, or help them to see the classes in a different way.
For those learning practical cooking skills to use in the home, they can tailor the lessons to what you like to eat, what your children like to eat, or what you have the time to prepare. There's no point in spending several classes learning how to make something that you wouldn't be able to make in your own kitchen, for example.
If you're a professional cook, they can teach you skills that you might need to brush up on, show you how to make new recipes or improve on your old ones, or teach you about different types of cuisine to help you land a job.
If you've decided that private cooking tutoring is for you, you can search for tutors in Plymouth and around Devon on the Superprof website. View each tutor's profile to see what experience they have, the type of cooking they teach, how much they charge, and whether or not they offer the first lesson for free.
You can use these free lessons to see which tutor is right for you. After all, you might be spending months or years with this tutor so you want to make sure that you get along and they have the right experience for what you want to learn.
If you can't find any tutors to your liking, you can always learn to cook with an online tutor. As long as you have a stable internet connection and a webcam, you can work with tutors offering online courses. This is good if you want to learn how to cook food from around the world as you can find private tutors specialising in international cuisines.
