Quality 5/5Difficulty 2/5
I LOVE LESLEY! Please chose her as your studio instructor in 220. She is incredibly caring, funny and speaks her truth when giving feedback which is super helpful. For this class at least, she grades based on if you did the assignment correctly and well, and doesn't compare or judge your design based on others or her own liking. Well organized too!

Lesley clearly has a passion for the material but I had to drop the class because she made me feel uncomfortable and left out. I got picked on a lot even though I was one of the few students in the class who was always paying attention.

Lesley was a great teacher, and provided good feeback during class with our progress on our projects. Although there was a good amount of work to do with the projects, it was nothing horribly complicated, you just have to put the time in.
