Eugenio is amazing! He is patient, kind, funny, and knowledgeable. I've taken a couple of his bootcamp classes, and they've been awesome. I would return for another anytime!
Eugenio was professional and very knowledgeable. The examples were things I could relate to and apply right away.
Eugenio was an awesome teacher. He demonstrated the capabilities of Adobe Illustrator beautifully while making it relevant and impactful for every individual. He is amazing at troubleshooting within the program, which shows how well he knows and understands its functions. I'd love to take another class with him.
The teacher was very knowledgeable and answered all our questions. The class was very interesting and learned a lot of new things that will help me in my next job.
I learned what I came here to learn. The exercises were great for walking us through skills. Sneha was amazing. She's very thorough and excellent at explaining the reasons behind what we're doing. There wasn't a problem she couldn't solve. She also created a wonderful learning environment and made me feel comfortable.
Whether you are a total beginner or need a refresh and are short on time, I highly recommend Illustrator in a day. It's given me the confidence boost to move towards more challenging classes and to tackle some projects.
Great course! Step-by-step instruction and great practice materials finally made illustrator easy for me.
I would definitely recommend this class!
Mastering the Pen tool has always eluded me, and Michele showed me the basics in a way that I can practice and build on this vital Illustrator skill.
After using Illustrator for over 15 years I now understand how to use the pen tool more efficiently and will be able to do my job faster! Fabulous class.
