Students say:
"The illustration tutorial is really good is so intimate that feels like a friend explaining to you her thoughts. A really original point of view. I was amazed by the timing cause at the end I felt I learned a lot. Great teacher, would take Karina's class in any other subject, anytime."
- Victor (Brazil)
"I liked the CV tutorial with Karina, she was very friendly and helpful. I liked how easy she made the layout seem (something I struggle with a lot). For anyone applying for a job this year I would recommend this."
- Kelly (UK)
"I can't thank Karina enough for all the feedback she gave me today. I appreciate her taking the time to go through my documents and discuss every aspect of it."
