5.Encouraging: Patti does not take our children for granted. She somehow manages to put a positive twist to all of their interactions. When my husband and I tutored the children, we at times felt like we were making them feel inadequate and were chipping away at their self-confidence.

I learned a lot in our two hour session, and I hope I remember it all. Our lesson made me acutely aware of the depth of Illustrator. Rick is knowledgeable and explains the lesson clearly. He made a real effort to connect the lesson to my work. He was patient and encouraging, which is important when you're learning a new skill.
