Jeff was patient, straightforward, and help turned my confusion into clarity. I was initially scattered with ideas but not clear on how to organize my indesign document, but Jeff was able to help me organized and get clear. Good job!

Jeff is Amazing!
I have been working with Jeff for a couple of weeks on adobe photoshop! He has been just what I needed to pass this course. He has taken the time to make sure i understand what material is covered. Because of Jeff’s help I am more confident in my photoshop abilities. I look forward to each of our sessions and working with him more in the future.

First lesson for an Adobe Illustrator newbie
I reached out to Jeff with a specific technique that I was trying to learn/replicate within Adobe Illustrator. Jeff was quick to respond with feedback and suggestions. During the lesson we discussed several time saving options that would help me achieve the desired outcome. Jeff was very knowledgeable and patient as I asked questions while working within the application. I'm excited to put to use what I learned after just one session and will be reaching out for future lessons once the time comes.
