Overnight, Francesca Watson began developing her online jewelry program in earnest. When COVID-19 struck, her teaching studio already offered some tutorials online, but The Makery had been all about learning in person. Suddenly, online was her only real option. Since then, she’s worked out a lot more bugs and now plays host to over 1,500 remote students who tune in regularly. The experience has been disruptive but energizing, she tells host Katie Hacker, and Francesca is now “1000% committed” to online teaching, come what may. It’s just her way of doing things: jump in to what you want, and look for the good everywhere else.
