The course is acceptable, but I find some issues with the audio; you have to turn it up a lot to hear, and external noises filter through. Regarding the way the classes are taught, I think the instructor lacks the ability to convey the essential concepts needed to develop illustrations efficiently, and when they do make an effort to explain, it is not clear. However, aside from that, the course has some interesting aspects. The instructor's English is perfectly understandable, and she seems to be a pleasant person. I found the texture class interesting. Finally, remember that learning to draw requires patience and a lot of practice. Best regards!

I think she is highly talented and knowledgeable. The course isnt perfect, there are moments of quietness while she works where I believe she could have elaborated more on what she was doing and explain how to do it in detail, slowly, step by step for beginners but that is also understandable because you can hear english is not her first language.All in all I am happy to have learnt some things directly from her and indirectly from watching her work. I believe it was a good job.Thank You.

The over all basic tips on figure drawings and fabric drawings were very helpful for me. Highlighting and shading was well explained. The stationery suggestions were good too. Thank you for the over all fashion illustration classes. I'll continue to practice now!

An overall great course. Her accent is a little difficult to understand at times, but she does well in several sections explaining step by step how to do certain illustrations, which I found very helpful. However there are sections where she just draws and doesn't say much which didn't keep me engaged and which taught me very little. Also, there are sections of the course where the music is so loud I can barely hear her. I learned a lot though and enjoyed the course.

I really like the way she teaches. She told us about how to login to pinterest how to set a moodboard for it. Also, she told us how to draw a croquis in detail and elaborated well on them. It is easy to understand. The way she is teaching shading, how to draw the details and how to draw garments is fab. I can understand perfectly well now how to draw the details too.

Hello my name is Perry El desouky, from the perspective of an 11 year old this course is challenging, but the teacher of this course is very good. She makes things easyer than they seem and very clear to understand. I'm enjoying this very much.

Even though I'm going into Web and Graphic Design, I thought that this course in fashion illustration would prove to be useful. It is a good course for beginners to fashion design who are interested in learning the basics. I really enjoyed this course, and I was able to get a lot from it that I have been able to put to use in my own creative designs.

I wanted to learn more about illustrations, specifically about rendering process. It helped me to understand croquis structure as well. Quite Splendid, want more session like this. Thanks Alexe, for making us understand illustrations in a simpler way!

Me gusta el curso, creo que aprendí nuevas técnicas y me parece que esta explicado de forma clara, sin embargo sentí que en algunas lecciones va muy rápido y se da por sentado que conocemos algunas cosas como las dimensiones para el dibujo del rostro.
By Serenada Allegra Sairadoti Simarmata on 12/4/2020
it is a really good for me. The explanation is clear, the demonstration is clear, and the editing of the videos are so cute. I love everything about it. It's also really fun to draw these fashion illustrations. Looking forward for more lectures on this topic!
