The art featured below is mostly from my more advanced high school age art club students. But fear not–this course is designed for both students who have no idea how to draw, and the most advanced art students. Most of my students start out drawing like kindergarteners. Everyone benefits from learning the same fundamental principles, and I always provide multiple exercises to choose from so that students can choose the level of challenge they feel most comfortable with.
Responses from Parents & Students
Here is just a small sample of the feedback I got from the parents of students who have taken my online classes.
My daughter LOVED this class and said she was excited to try this out at school today. She is usually pretty shy, but it sounds like she was able to easily relate to the teacher and asked about taking this and some of his other classes.

My 12 year old twin daughters loved the course. They said that the information was just what they needed and the teacher was very helpful! We will be looking to take more from this instructor.

Fantastic experience for artists who are looking to learn alot in a rather short period of time.

Great class!! My son really enjoyed this. He ended each class laughing and excited to create. Thanks Shaun!

Shaun was very engaging and interactive with all students. He took a skill that my son dreads (more taking) and made it appealing. Most of the students did not want to leave class when it was finished! I especially appreciated his personalized feedback on how my son did in class. We will be looking for more of Shaun’s classes!

My daughter has high functioning autism and she really enjoyed this class. It is often difficult for her to copy copious notes and I felt she learned a lot from this that could help her for the upcoming school year.

If your kid loves to draw this is an outstanding course. Our kiddo is blessed to be a easy learner but this course made it even easier for her to use her passion to help retain even more information effortlessly. Great course, outstanding teacher.

My 12 yo son really loved this course. He has difficulty processing verbal language, so note-taking- particularly from a lecture or video- is challenging for him. This method, and Shaun's teaching style, resonated with my son. He paid attention for the whole class (which is also often a challenge), and I immediately saw the benefits of what he'd learned. He no longer dreads taking notes, we no longer have to repeatedly pause lectures/videos, and he is able to capture the important information. I can't thank Shaun enough!

Great class! My son enjoyed it and has been using the techniques he learned. Useful tools for dyslexia/dysgraphia/ADHD student.

My kid thinks it was interesting and fun class. Good for kids who like to draw and get bored in regular class.

Visual note-taking was a totally new concept for my kid. So I expected to only sow the seeds that she would incorporate some time. Following this class, when the French teacher asked her to draw some concepts she quickly drew it, and I was very happy to do it. Of course, it needs refinement, as she had to explain the drawings to us. But she got what she needed from the class. Thank you

This was one of the most exciting classes I've ever taken, both online and in person, it was super engaging and and fun.The whole class made it seem as if I was sitting at home talking to an old bud of mine, personally I'm more into games, graphic design, and mostly photography, but one of my other class mates was more into art and drawing, and we were both equally taught, its not like one of us had less to learn than the other, All in all i would 100%% recommend this class for any one and every one!

Shaun is such an amazing teacher ! My 11 yo son enjoyed this class so much and he was absolutely excited about what he learned. He started working on his school project right after the class and he is researching things and trying to summarise it using the skills that he learned in this class . It is practical and such an important and useful skills to learn. Highly recommended!!

My 14-year old really enjoyed learning about this "cool technique." He said, after drawing all the notes, he actually can remember everything. I hope it's a skill he will be able to use across all subjects.

I love this class because Shaun engages his students. The visual parts keep the students actively interested in the lesson; his presentation of the lessons he teaches is fully engaging, because he makes the boring ‘things’ look like fun. I would recommend this class to anyone looking for a way to have a good time while learning.

My 12 year old was so excited, he got off the class shouting "I'll never be the same again!!!!" (in a good way of course). He loved this class
