Robert is a very knowledgeable Photoshop and Illustrator tutor. My first lesson with him was great! He was very prepared and helpful, and I plan on scheduling follow up lessons.

Chad said ... June 21st 2011Robert is a fantastic tutor. Not only can he explain the "invisible" processes of the software that we work with, but he can also contextualize the techniques within the possibilities they offer to professional practice. And he does that with a great aesthetic sensibility. He comes to every session with a plan of study for the day already in mind, but at the same time, he engages with the direction you want to take in your lessons. He really knows his stuff. Highly recommended.

Sunmi L said ... July 2nd 2011It's extremely difficult to find people like Robert who are knowledgeable in everything digital/3D you can think of. I got a lot of help on my maya project as well as some issues I was having with 3ds max, and it's an engaging class/tutor session because his methods of inquiry, especially with maya, are very interesting. Highly recommended!
