Tess is an excellent teacher and phenomenal skier - we all enjoyed our lessons with her and learned a lot, even tho' we are all different levels. It definitely enhanced our holiday – thankyou.

I had a level 6 ski clinic on the Monday & Wednesaday afternoons. There were three of us and Tess was a great instructor. Very personable and good fun, as well as being very helpful in providing guidance and instruction. I would not hesitate to recommend New Generation - thank you! Richard

In total, Tess looked after 6 members of our holiday group (varying from novice to experienced) between individual and group lessons. We unanimously found her to be the best instructor that any of us have ever had. We were all vastly improved by the end of the week and had a great time learning from her. Aside from skiing, we also learned how to make proper snow angels and where to find the best waffles in Tignes! An outstanding instructor! Thanks Tess!
