"I think this is my 5th course with media training, I absolutely love coming here for training and find every single class I have taken very productive. Charlotte was a fantastic instructor and made learning illustrator much less intimidating than I had previously thought. I can't wait to incorporate my new skills I learned from her, and I would love to take another class with her!"
