I would describe my style of teaching as detail-oriented, with a focus on understanding. It is important to me that the student actually understands what we are working on. I am aware that every person learns differently, therefore, I like to work with the individual personally and come up with the best approach for that person specifically.
Generally speaking, I like to first and foremost make sure the student thoroughly understands the principles and elements of design. To me, that is the number one thing to being a strong graphic designer. Once the student is comfortable with the "rules" of design, if you will, they will be able to appropriately and intentionally apply what they've learned to any and every design they ever create.
Hello! My name is Sara. I have a Bachelor of Arts degree in Graphic Design, and nearly 10 years of design experience. Along the way, I have developed many other creative skills, such as branding and creative direction. Design is a huge form of communication, therefore I believe it is crucial to not only learn how to use the software (Photoshop, Illustrator, Indesign..) but also (and primarily) the "rules" of graphic design, if you will. The guidelines that will allow the student to better understand the meaning of it all.
Have known her throughout my career in college and trust her with any design advice. Always helpful, attentive, thoughtful, courteous, and consistently pushes you to be the best version of yourself as possible. Couldn’t recommend her enough if you want to truly exceed in design!
Sara is very dedicated to design and will help flush out ideas, teach different design techniques, and produce an awesome final product! She is very patient with beginners and very thorough for advanced students! Sara helped me throughout an entire semester design course and I couldn’t have done it without her. I referred Sara to a friend who was a beginner, she guided her throughout multiple projects and was able to explain things in easy to understand ways!
