Tatiana Ambrose
Are you creative and looking for fun and unique courses to take?
Then you've come to the right place! Hi, my name is Tatiana Ambrose, and my world revolves around creativity and creative thought. I have a BFA degree in Creative Writing and find myself drawn to the questions most creative enthusiasts are drawn to: how to generate new ideas, and how to stand out from the crowd as I do it.
I always contemplate these two questions, especially, during my creative work (academic work as well as personal). My creativity expresses itself through writing, still, life drawing with various art media, paper art, painting, acrylic, rock art, ceramics, sewing, jewelry, pastels, and multimedia work. Abstract art has always been my favorite; it is through that medium that my creativity can really soar.
In 2009, during my college years, I began a YouTube channel focusing on upcycling pop tabs and creating tutorials encouraging others to follow along. These videos are still some of the most popular videos on my channel with almost 5 million total views.

Thank you Tatiana. This course was absolutely not what I expected, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. In my role as learning designer, I am constantly challenged to find creative ways of designing learning experiences. This course has unlocked ways that I have never even thought of to get inspiration and tap into my creativity.

I really enjoyed taking the course and my mind was opened to new creative ideas. I wished that the course had more practice problems and examples. Thank you for your time in creating this lecture. Margaret

"Teaching" or "Enabling" creativity is a hard task. Although I can see that serious effort has been put throughout this course, it does not seem to work out for me (I performed almost all of the exercises). The flow was quite mundane and it did not leave this feeling of "connecting the dots" that creativity is all about. Good advice was presented in some of the lectures (eg. how to enable your kids' creativity), but in general it didn't leave behind a stimulating impression. Still it's a good effort for such a hard topic.

Very useful exercises and I had some major takeaways from taking this course. I won't reveal them here, because people need to go on the journey for themselves. I put off taking this course for a while because I already considered myself a highly creative person and I was skeptical about whether I'd find anything new, but I certainly did and I'm so glad I went through the whole course and did the exercises. Love your work, Tatiana! Keep going! :-)

I actually went through the entire course making notes of each exercise to practice all of them, and maybe watch the course again. If your procrsatination it's stopping you from accomplishing your creative goals, that smile of Tatiana may do something about it.

Awesome course,Great exercises to maintain the creative flow, I have tried various exercises mentioned in the course and they do increase my creative flow and energy.I like,to the point courses and it was exactly that.I really liked the cloud surfing and 20 is the new 30 exercise and how to scramble words.The course was definitely worth it.Thanks again Would love to see more of your work :)
By Pamela Barnett on 1/16/2018
The energy from the instructor is lacking. This makes it hard for me to be enthusiastic about the exercises and the lectures. UPDATE: I didn't think I was getting much out of the course, but out of nowhere I noticed that my creativity is coming back. Thank you so much for this course!

Amazing course just what I was looking for when it came to giving me more hands on exercises to help improve my creative thinking and creativity. If you like exercises where you can draw, sculpt and write then you'll like these exercises like I did
By Scott Black on 6/21/2017
I consider myself a creative person but am in a slump when it comes to getting my creativity going. I liked the fact that Tatiana did the exercises with you and shared her results for each exercise instead of just explaining an exercise. I enjoyed this course and feel ready to jump back into my creative projects.

This course was amazing! There were so many examples and exercises to help with creativity. Tatiana was very encouraging throughout the entire course and offering additional help/practice if needed. She did an excellent job of giving definitions and additional resources to assist with creativity. I can't wait to see future courses that Tatiana has to offer.
