In the instructor role at CGMastersAcademy I provide feedback and answer questions to several students at varying levels of expertise in the course material. I also focus on the engagement of students, making sure they are involved and that they are being challenged. My aim is to improve the student's understanding of the course material so that they proceed with more confidence in their artwork. As an instructor I take it upon myself to adjust to my students to better suit their needs rather than expect them to adjust to my preferences.
