Radmila Y.

1 Art lesson

I asked Ryan to help my son with those skills and I cannot be more happy. Dennis loved his lessons with Ryan. He told me that Ryan is the best art teacher he ever had. That his tips are helping him tremendously and fast and more helpful than any art teacher ever gave him. I withdrew my kids from the art school and now they are learning art with Ryan.
Judy C.

12 Art lessons

She has taught invaluable skills, such as how to prioritize tasks and effectively schedule study time. These lessons have gone beyond just improving art skills, and I am confident this will benefit my daughter even in the future. I am immensely grateful for Kathleen’s positive impact on my kid’s AP Art journey and cannot thank her enough for her dedication and hard work. In a word, I highly recommend Kathleen to anyone in search of a knoledgeable and responsible Art tutor!
James C.

1 Art lesson

For our first lesson Shay was able to connect with our son and show him a perspective about art as related to geometric forms. I'm sure if he had a different interest she would have related that to art instead. I had friends who attended art class at FIT and Parson's in NYC and his first lesson seemed equivalent to what you would get there, only personalized. Her teaching style seems to blend how to think about art, technique, and the personality of the student.
