As an instructor, I was responsible for organizing, building, and teaching lectures on the principles of animation while also grading student’s competency within their assignments as they pertain to AnimSchool and industry standards."Tyler is by far the best instructor I have ever had at any school. He has deep love and appreciation for animation and it clearly shows. He loves what he does. His critiques were fantastically thorough and he taught in a fun and engaging way. His demos were easy to follow and he constantly gave extremely valuable nuggets of wisdom that he wish he knew when he started learning animation. Starting my journey into the field of animation, I feel confident knowing that Tyler was my first teacher. He truly gave us a solid foundation to move forward in our careers." - Student Feedback
