Question from Jamie

Hello I have two weeks free in the beginning of the summer. Is this the type of class where I can sign up for multiple days in a row or a handful over two weeks? Or is it really intended to be one day and done. Thanks

Answer from Brenda L. CourseHorse Staff

Hi Jamie! Chelsea Classical Studio would recommend students try a class, and then decide if it works for them. Some people just come for a day, others return regularly. Hope this helps!

...excellent - professional and informative. Tutor quickly established the individual skill level and mirrored their response to ensure I understood and benefited from their shared wisdom. Other students were very welcoming, which made the creative atmosphere more enjoyable...a great experience!

The instructor was extremely helpful and did not have a heavy hand in guiding me. I learned more in 3 hours than I did in one year from my NYU design teacher.

Reviewed by Josephine L. on 7/17/2018

I had fun and my drawing definitely improved by the end of the class.

Reviewed by Anonymous on 4/17/2018

I enrolled under the assumption the class was fundamentals ie for beginners. The class was beyond too advanced for me. The class and teacher were by no means friendly or helpful. I would like to rescind my enrollment and look for another basic class if possible.

This was my first drawing classes. The teachers conveyed and illustrated techniques that guide the creation of a drawing.
