I'm an intermediate speaker, and what I really wanted was to actually SPEAK French and not spend all my time buried in a textbook! Marion makes our lessons feel like real conversations, which is exactly what I was looking for. She's patient, fun, and very easy to talk to. My French isn't perfect (and probably never will be ), but I'm much more confident using it! Highly recommend Marion, especially if your goal is real-life conversational French!

Marion is such a great teacher! Her one on one approach to…read moreteaching French is really helping me get past the hurdles of not feeling confident enough to speak. I am over 65, and my brain just is not working as fast as it used to. Until I found Marion, I was constantly overthinking all of the past lessons I'd had and getting mad at myself for not remembering something I had practiced 2 or 3 years ago. I felt literally frozen and unable to speak. With her patience and encouragement I am having fun learning and SPEAKING French again. Her fun and engaging lessons are well prepared and her personal coaching is exactly what I need to get back on track and progress further. I know that with her caring and patience I can do this, and my brain is beginning to work again!

I'm attending LA Art League because I was basically new to art when I started and I wanted to build…read morea portfolio so I could apply to art colleges. I've been with them for two months now and I've taken their traditional Drawing class, their Digital Art class, and also their Life Drawing class. I've learned so many fundamental concepts such as the rhythm of a line, drawing through my shoulder, and I'm currently drilling proportions for the human body. The teachers provide very personal attention and feedback that is both honest and encouraging. In the Digital Art class, alumni from art colleges teach students to draw and design on Photoshop and Illustrator while guiding them through their portfolios. The teachers also do demonstrations which are so incredibly helpful for me. I feel like I learn so much from seeing them compose a landscape or render a human head. Coming from essentially zero background in the arts, I've improved my drawing skills quite a bit and learned so much about what is required to apply for art colleges. The one and only downside to attending LA Art League is the parking. There is plenty of 2-Hour street parking available nearby, however, so I've gotten used to that.

Choosing Laguna College of Art + Design was truly life-changing and remains one of the best…read moredecisions I've ever made. For a long time, I wasn't even sure if a creative career was feasible, let alone if I could support myself doing it. LCAD proved that it's not only possible but sustainable. One of the biggest draws for me was that LCAD is one of the most affordable accredited art and design schools in California. I never felt like I was sacrificing quality for cost. The education I received in the Design program was easily on par with competitors like Art Center, but with a much smaller price tag and a far more intimate environment. The industry connections here were so exciting to me. While I was still a student, I had the opportunity to work on projects with powerhouse brands like: Nike, Vans, Hurley, and the Anaheim Ducks. These aren't just names on a syllabus; they are real-world partnerships that prepare you for the workforce. When I graduated and entered the industry, I felt completely prepared because the classes were incredibly rigorous. People might think a school in a beautiful beach town is the "easy" choice, but I have never worked harder in my life. What really sets LCAD apart is the faculty. They don't just know your name; they care about your life. I saw this firsthand when a friend in the program was in a bad car accident. The Department Chair personally helped her navigate legal issues and created a custom plan so she wouldn't fall behind due to transportation hurdles. Years after graduating, I am still on texting terms with many of my professors. They are always ready to provide industry leads or advice. The location in Laguna Beach is stunning. Being able to slow down and enjoy the nature of the canyon provided a necessary balance to the high-intensity coursework. Not to mention the beauty and calm allowed for a constant source of inspiration for me. I left LCAD with a sharpened skillset, a career I love, and a group of best friends who are now my peers in the industry. If you are looking for a supportive, high-caliber, and industry-connected experience, this is it. I wouldn't change my time here for anything.
