Israel Lopez, is a wonderful teacher. He's concise, patient and pleasant. I have done watercolor paintings in the past, but was always self taught. Israel showed us different techniques like: wet on wet, dry brush. We painted Koi and landscape etc. Five classes only, but packed in with information on brushes, what paper to use... worth the small price. I look forward to take more classes from Israel.

Parent and Preschooler Swim - Ages: 2 - 5 yrs.
Anonymous review on 11/15/2022
Paid for four 45-min classes. They only taught for 30 min each class. The water was so cold that the kids were shivering the entire time and my daughter had purple lips. It made things worse in terms of getting them comfortable in the water. Do not recommend. We left the third class early because it was so cold and didn’t attend the 4th class at all.

When I first signed up my kid for the addition and subtraction course I was a bit skeptical if whether or not it was legit and to my surprise it was! My child ever since taking the course has greatly improved his mathematical skills. I would highly suggest other parents look into the program if they are to look into their kids' best interests.

My child enjoyed the class but said the teacher was quite impatient after giving assignments. She would be upset if the students didn’t complete it according to her short timeframes. These are elementary school kids! Have some patience.

Israel was a very good teacher, patient and able to explain the techniques used. A suggestion would be to email the students a photo of the following week’s project, supplies and technique focus. This way we could be sure we had everything needed. Because we’re not together as a class we’re unable to share paints as we can in person. Thanks for making the class available. It was very enjoyable.
