I am still a novice at 3D modeling, and it has also been a few months since I've used the program, so I was very rusty. Lanza did a great job at gauging and understanding my skill level upon meeting him. He knew the tools that were necessary to recap before we began the modeling project. Lanza knows the right questions to ask, and is consistently paying attention to his student's progress along the way. I recommend this tutor to anyone who benefits from a 1 on 1 style of teaching.

Lanza helped me create a model on Autodesk Maya. With zero experience or knowledge of the program, Lanza was able to help me make a sophisticated model. Very patient and answers questions very thoroughly. Highly recommend!

I am not an expert and he took his time and didn't get bothered with me not knowing everything. I was assisted with Autodesk Maya. Thanks, Matthew! I would certainly recommend him to anyone interested in or in need of a tutor.
