About Elise

Hello! My name is Elise. Currently, in my final year as a design student in France, I have developed a deep appreciation for the power of visual communication and its impact on shaping experiences. Throughout my journey, I have immersed myself in various courses and certifications, honing my skills in areas such as logo design, branding, typography, and layout design. I have mastered the Adobe Tools and want to share my knowledge with you. As a graphic design teacher, I firmly believe in fostering creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills in my students. I strive to create a collaborative and supportive learning environment that encourages exploration and growth. My goal is to continue learning, staying updated with the latest design trends and technologies, while inspiring and nurturing the next generation of graphic designers.

About the lesson

Entering the graphic design world as a beginner can feel overwhelming, with so much to discover and learn. But I am here to guide you through every step of your journey, helping you become a great graphic designer.

We'll start by learning all about graphic design theories and continue by mastering the basics of Adobe programs, essential tools for every designer. Together, we'll explore the latest trends and create cutting-edge graphics that will enhance your portfolio and boost your confidence.

But it's not just about following trends; my ultimate goal is to help you discover your own unique style and translate your ideas through visual communication. I will provide personalized teaching techniques tailored to your rhythm and needs, ensuring your progress and growth. Along the way, we will work together with various design projects, from logos to posters and book design, enabling you to hone your skills and showcase your talent and communicate your message effectively.

So, whether you're a beginner just starting your design journey or someone looking to level up their skills, we will learn the graphic design theories every designer should know:
1. The anatomy of typography
2. Grids and layout theory
3. Color theory

And after finishing with the theories, we will start putting our knowledge into work and have fun creating together numerous projects with the Adobe programs:
1. The basics of Photoshop
2. Photo editing
3. Instagram post project
4. Intermediate tools
5. Book cover project

Perfect! Elise is a skilled, polite, experienced, and easy to understand instructor. She is very patient and descriptive in her instructional style and she goes an extra mile to ensure that things are taught at a pace and depth at which her student feel comfortable. The fact that she really knows her way around design softwares helped me build added confidence in taking lessons from her. She was very accomodating of my needs, for which I'm grateful. Initially, I only wanted to take one class but her teaching style made me feel comfortable enough to know that taking additional classes would a good learning investment and would be well worth it. Highly recommended!

What I liked the most about Elise’s teaching method is that not only she’s very patient with her students(especially beginners) but that she also gives really fun design projects that you can encounter with in real life, we did together an imaginary skin care brand and she explained all the process, this hands-on approach not only enhanced my understanding of graphic design but also allowed me to envision how these skills could be applied in real-life scenarios. I really enjoyed studying with her. I strongly recommend her! :)

Thanks to Elise’s guidance, I not only gained a deep understanding of Illustrator and Photoshop but also learned invaluable tips and tricks that set me apart from my classmates in design school. As a complete beginner, I initially found these softwares intimidating, but Elise's patient and supportive teaching style helped me overcome my fears and unlock my creative potential. I entered design school with more confidence, allowing me to thrive in my creative pursuits.

I've been doing lessons with Elise in Adobe programs since the beginning of this year, and I can say that she is the nicest and most patient teacher I've ever had. We worked with illustrator work sheets that she prepared to get to know the tools and then we made numerous projects together. Since I'm learning design at university, these lessons with her helped me a lot to create my university and personal projects.
I strongly recommend her!

Elise has been teaching me graphic design for about a year, in everything from photoshop to illustrator. What I appreciate the most about her is her ability to communicate her ideas in a way that a beginner would understand. She makes sure she's with you every step of the way and would always double check to make sure I understand what she's teaching. She is always improving as a teacher and is very engaged with her students. She made sure I always felt like all questions were welcome and that I was never working alone.

I highly recommend Elise as a graphic design tutor, I started out as a complete beginner in Illustrator, but she’s really patient and has an incredible way of teaching, she can break down any complex subject and makes them easier to understand and the weekly homework about what we learned previously really helped me master the program.
