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.

Reviewed by Anonymous on 9/21/2017

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

Reviewed by Israel D. on 9/7/2017

Class is poorly organized with little or no organization and even less instruction. This class is not designed for one who is a beginner, wanting to study freehand drawing and should not be advertised as such.
