I was not prepared for how… I was not prepared for how professional, how supportive and genuine my instructors Adam and Alex would be for my game narrative course (Sabina you are our biggest cheerleader too and we all thank you for that.) I never would've guessed this class was as new as it was for how informative, helpful and resourceful it was. ELVTR makes sure you not only feel safe to learn to create, but pushes you with a community driven approach that felt it worked better than a lot of college courses I've taken.

Ivy Sang, Industry experience, Portfolio piece I really enjoyed Ivy Sang as teacher. She is the best part of the class. Her industry knowledge plus her candor and personable teaching style makes the class stand out among other UX classes. Juan, who is currently a Tech UI Designer at Bungie was also a great associate instructor. The portfolio piece you get in the end is awesome. And the portfolio feedback was super helpful in learning about communication and design judgement.

This is what colleges should be focusing on, first person teaching. This may be the best good faith education initiative I have seen. They will call you on a SATURDAY if you request it. Great customer service and great tech Shout out to the dude “Lev the Legend” making calls on a national holiday

Lots of patience and kindness I've struggled with class environments my whole life. I've never felt so comfortable. Sabina of the staff is incredibly kind, understanding, and very human. Adam was a fantastic person to learn from and ask questions of. He was honest, and he had no problem rephrasing his answers when needed. I struggled outside of class due to personal family concerns, and the accommodations I was given made such a huge difference. I thought I needed to drop out and give up, but I've been given the time needed to pick myself up and prove I deserve the chance offered to me. I don't know if any other words can express the gratitude I have for this opportunity and for the help I received. And now, I feel like I've also been able to make friends, hopefully for the long term, in this class, who also helped me out so much. I genuinely hope other people get to experience what I did.

Everyone at the course is not only… Everyone at the course is not only really responsive but very fun to talk to. It made the space feel very open and for the first time in a long time I was comfortable sharing a lot of ideas. If there was a possibility of an advanced game writing course being added in the future, I would without hesitation apply for it.
