Jay has been teaching me 2D Animation! He makes everything easy to understand learning 2D. When I have difficulty understanding. He explains it clearly for me to understand. I can't wait to learn more! Jay is great! I recommend this tutor!
Debi S.

1 Animation lesson

His teaching method consists of animation, pattern recognition, valid shortcuts, consistent charts, and ways to remember key concepts and processes. I left the tutoring session having learned a great deal more in one hour than ever expected. With a few more sessions, I feel confident that I will be ready for the MEGA test.
