  • 5/5 from Hafsa Sarwar, attended Nov 2025: The instructor was super nice. She is pretty knowledge. I will recomend her.
  • 5/5 from Daniel Hwang, attended Feb 2025: She was really great and helpful!
  • 5/5 from Rodel Ventura, attended Jul 2024: The teacher was very nice and didn’t talk too fast or too slow. She explained things step by step and gave us time to explore and have creativity with the app. She knows the subject very well and taught us how to use multiple tools.
  • 4/5 from Karissa Brune, attended Mar 2023: What was the teacher like? The teacher is very knowledgeable about the Procreate app and is a skilled digital artist/drawer. I learned a lot in one hour. How was the venue (if applicable)? The venue is uniqueit is actually a table inside a cafe. It is a bit busy and distracting as I was expecting an art studio, but the class content is good so I can make the venue work. If materials were provided, did you like them? An iPad and pencil can be rented for $20, which seems a bit pricey. Was the experience good value for money? Yes! What did you do / learn? I learned about layering, tracing, and pulling colors from photos on the internet. What did you like most? The technology. I will be back and purchase a full class package.
  • 5/5 from Yvanna Abadia, attended Feb 2023: I found the class very informative and hands on. Thanks Mary! We will return soon for another class.
