Dynamic Sketching 2

I don’t want to sound over the top, but Peter Han has completely changed, not only the way that I will work in future, but also the way that I think and ‘see’. I didn’t think it was possible to change so much in such a short time. The way that he adapts to the needs of each student, and manages the time spent on various subjects according to needs and not just a fixed plan is just incredible. He also shares so much about his own methodology and experiences that we gain so much invaluable insight. I have had many classes with other providers, who have taught you how to represent a subject on paper. Peter actually breaks that all apart and builds up, from the very beginning, how you should approach creativity and artistry. Not only have I ‘learnt’ new things, but have ‘unlearnt’ my bad habits that were holding me back. I took so much away from this class that I really wish that I haven’t bothered with my degree and started with CGMA sooner.

Peter was exceptionally nice to learn from. Not only did he cover the material of the class but he was also very encouraging when we were dealing with performance anxiety, the process of drawing (and sometimes failing) and he was very supportive overall. He felt like one of those teachers at school that makes you fall in love with a subject, not because the subject is anything exceptional but because the teacher is.

I’m thoroughly pleased with the feedback and instruction Patrick offered. Every once in a while, I’d check out his feedback to other students and found that he doesn’t give out canned and generalized feedback. He seems to be aware of where each student is developmentally, and offers critiques that are the most useful to them.

Patrick does a great job with this course. Even though he has taught this extensively, his enthusiasm for the course and our success was present in every Q&A. As this was my first course with CGMA, I did not know what to expect, but if Patrick represents the caliber of instructors at CGMA I look forward to my next course.
