Success stories

Real stories from real people

Since 2005, Wyzant has provided a way for people to learn any subject in a way that works for them.

Shrey S.

1 Animation lesson

She was very knowledgeable about whatever I needed help with and really created a clean final product. For example, before we even started the lesson she contacted me with a plethora of tips and tricks to prepare for the session so we would start the animation ASAP. She also has very flexible timings so scheduling a session with her should be no issue. Overall, if you need help with your animation anywhere from the range of high school to even college, she will be able to help you studiously.
Carl S.

1 Animation lesson

She helped me determine a jumping-off point for my series and provided actionable advice based on my technical goals and level of skill. She provided great resources of examples of different layers in the animation pipeline in case I wanted to learn them myself or hire someone and be able to speak with them about what I needed. If you’ve been scanning reviews and profiles—STOP! You’ve found who you’re looking for. Anastasia is the bridge between “Maybe I could…” to “I can actually do this. OK let’s get started!”
