"I was a mechanic student for 13 months, and I can safely say that Russell and Thomas are two of the finest mechanic teachers you'll ever meet. I've never felt so prepared to work in a field. These men are legendary in their own right and deserve all the admiration!"

"If you have a great teacher who is kind, affable, knowledgeable, and helpful, then you are a lucky person. Mr. Kuiyan Xu has all these qualities and is a great choice to learn something creative. I was stuck with drawing descriptions, and I contacted him. He helped me tremendously. He knows how to conduct lessons and make learners grasp concepts quickly. I liked his methodology—how he first involved the learner, made them observe, and describe a drawing. Thank you!"
